When to start application based on the new FSWP rules?

[Orestes84]

All,

I know that CIC will start accepting new applications only beginning May 2013. I was wondering if the forumers know of any resources in the CIC website that will enable me to start the legwork for the new application (pre-requisites, documents etc) earlier so that I can complete the application faster when the CIC starts accepting applications?

Thanks,
Sundar

Hi,

I am sure you have gone through the CIC website. Do you qualify the Basic eligibility criteria?

Basic eligibility

For your application to be eligible for processing, you must:

have a valid offer of arranged employment, OR

be an international student enrolled in a PhD program in Canada (or graduated from a Canadian PhD program within the past 12 months) and meet certain criteria.
