When I checked Citizenship and Immigration Canada's website this morning for update on the number of applications received for Ministerial Instruction 3 (MI-3), this is what saw:
The cap fro MI-3 has been reached. Citizenship and Immigration Canada has received 10,000 complete Federal Skilled Worker applications for processing since July 1, 2011. This means, they will no longer accept new applications until June 30, 2012.
I'm not when was this posted. I believe it was posted just few hours ago since it wasn't like this yesterday night. I was looking for date references and noticed a discrepancy:
This page was supposedly updated May 7, 2012 but information posted in that page pertains to report dated May 8, 2012. I don't know how to explain that.
If new Ministerial Instructions are not issued before July 1, 2012, the current cap of 10,000 new applications will re-set on that date.
Citizenship and Immigration Canada recently launched a consulation on whether to create a new and specialized program to attract immigrant entrepreneurs - the Start-Up Visa for Immigrant Entrepreneurs.
“Our Government’s top priority remains jobs, growth and long-term prosperity. Canada cannot afford to lose out in the competition for foreign entrepreneurs among immigrant-receiving countries,” said Minister Jason Kenney. “We need to proactively target a new type of immigrant entrepreneur who has the potential to build innovative companies that can compete on a global scale and create jobs for Canadians.”

If approved, it will now be easier for skilled tradespersons to immigrate to Canada. In Citizenship and Immigration Canada's news release dated April 10, 2012, it announced its intention to create a new Skilled Trades Program, as part of the plan to modernized Federal Skill Worker Program (FSWP).The proposed FSWP Skilled Trades program would create a means for skilled tradespersons to be assessed based on criteria geared towards their reality, putting more emphasis on practical training and work experience rather than formal education. The new skilled trades stream would avoid some of the complexities of the traditional points grid. Skilled trades applicants will, however, need to meet minimum language requirements, given the importance of language as a determinant of immigrant success. [Source]
This new program may be implemented later this year. My guess is it will be implemented this coming July 2012 in time for the Ministerial Instruction 5.
