how is that?

3 fold increase in application from India between 2016 to 2017 is a good indicator isn’t it ?

There can be many numbers of reason for that. USA situation, more information regarding this process, one successful application triggering multiple application etc. Please don't politicize this forum with half-baked theory.

An aquaintence became Canadian PR... went to Canada, stayed there for three months, got a job offer and then returned for good as ‘Canada is too cold’.( a simple google search could have helped)

A guy claims recieved ITA today (read on a link shared on this thread) , that actually arrived and lying in his mail box for 2 weeks.

A couple i know became Canadian PR (already a naturalised Singapore Citizen and own two houses) ,now dont want to go as they learnt that they are well settled here and thought to get canada PR , since ‘they were getting it’.

Not against free life or freewill or giving any moral sermons but..

PS: Pls dont reply to this or qoute, just read .think . Align

peace

I feared IRCC more than God, at least when my application was under their mercy. Now I fear CRA and my bank.

On an unrelated note, I was just reading the newsletter from CanadaVisa, looks like Indian candidates are still dominating the EE pool (account for 42% of all ITAs in 2017) while the Filipinos, once a dominant force in 2016, are no where to be found. Is LMIA the reason why?

The number of Indians is not a big surprise. It is the heavy emphasis on English language proficiency that causes Indians more likely to get ITA.

I believe the drop in Philipino number is due to the reduction in points for LMIA. Their numbers got reduced after points for arranged employment was slashed from 600 to 50.

+ The Australian skilled visa category used to get 2000-4000 invites in a month ( bikweekly draws) now they have reduced to 600 since Dec2017.
That means thousands on new express entry EOIs for Canada.

This isn't a half backed theory, neither i am politicizing the issue. If we were to look at the US aspect, all these qualified applicant could have moved back home.
I am highlighting the economic aspect. Qualified applicants applying for Canadian immigration "do feel" that they have better prospects out of their home country.

Yup, that's exactly what I thought. They mostly got in through the food/retails industry which relied heavily on LMIA, but with the changes in Nov 2016, that door was closed forever.

I think after 2019, there will be significant changes in EE, as they might setup some new regulations on NOC and field of study.
