Hello all those waiting for their Visas

This may cause a bit of a stir. Massod ji would be able to clarify whether the article below is true or not.


Quote-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The immigration community is in an uproar over the new legislation released by Canadian Immigration authorities. The main purpose of this legislation appears to be to 'wipe out' the excessive backlog of more than 300,000 applications. Only applicants who have already been approved or have had an interview before the new law comes into effect next June will be judged according to the old criteria.

The new criterion applies for the 'skilled worker' category only. The number of points required will increase, putting more emphasis on education, language skills, work experience and ties to Canada such as having family here or a job offer. This will eliminate the old practise of earning points for certain occupations. The new pass mark will be 80 points out of 100 instead of 70 out of 100.

Success

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded. Bessie Stanley

This is a bolt from the blue.

Just can't believe this. I hope they again don't make it retrospective and fall into the trap of legal battle.

The news is very very disappointing for many of us who are eagerly waiting for so many months.

Kindly update incase anyone has any information.
