New Federal skilled worker programme has been announced in
May 2014 with 50 occupations and CAP is for 25,000 applications. This time the
overall CAP has been increased significantly as compared to the last year’s programme
as the last year the CAP was only for 5000 applications. This is the last time
that these kind of applications will be accepted under the current programme
before the new Express Entry programme is launched in 2015.
There are 50 occupations that are open at the moment, but in
one occupation the limit of applications are 1000. That occupation will close
once 1000 applications have been accepted, and other will be open if there are
numbers left in 25,000.
