近两天不少一直关注加拿大联邦技术移民4月17日法案出台的客户给我们电话问询新政变化情况，到目前为止，新移民法案一直还未见公布。我们猜测有可能加拿大移民局目前还在整理各省意见反馈，3月17-4月16是各省意见汇总反馈期，具体的政策成形及什么时候出台最早估计会最早在5月份以后。在这种情况下，建议客户可以暂时按原定移民申请方案进行，在紧缺职业列表且有合格雅思成绩的客户在第一时间内提交申请，不要贻误时机。

　　近期处在还继续观望的客户，比如有的客户关注加拿大联邦技术法案，还有客户关注澳洲430法案，或者两者都在关注，在这些申请方案可能都行不通就考虑选择魁北克的客户，我的建议是先对自己的语言能力做个详细摸底，如果近期内能达到要求的水平，就考虑等待;如果语言测试水平和目标差距很远，建议马上考虑换移民申请方案，可以直接考虑学习法语开始魁北克技术移民申请，以免出现英语学习时间耽误很久，雅思成绩却迟迟达不到预期效果，走很多冤枉路耽误很多时间和精力最后来申请魁北克技术移民，可能那是魁北克已经出现申请人较多或者移民法处于波动的状态。那样会非常得不偿失。

　　Government of Canada consults Canadians on economic immigration priorities

　　Ottawa, March 16, 2010 — As the economic recovery gains momentum, Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney today launched consultations to identify Canada’s new and emerging labour market needs and how immigration can best respond to them.

　　The Government of Canada is seeking the views of Canadians on how to help lead Canada to full economic recovery from the global recession. These consultations will look at worker shortages in trades and professions across Canada as well as the factors that affect an immigrant’s ability to succeed in Canada’s work force.

　　The consultations will help develop instructions to immigration officers on which economic immigration applications are eligible for processing. As part of the Action Plan for Faster Immigration, the first set of instructions was issued in November 2008 as a tool to keep the backlog of applications from growing, to reduce wait times for new applications and to better match new economic applicants to Canada’s labour market needs.

　　“The Action Plan for Faster Immigration is designed to make immigration more responsive to Canada’s economic conditions. When these conditions change, the instructions are meant to change too,” said Minister Kenney. “The first set of instructions has had a significant impact, but our research shows it is time to revise them to make sure they continue to meet their goals.”

　　Before the Action Plan for Faster Immigration was introduced, the backlog in the federal skilled worker category stood at more than 600,000 applicants, and that number has gone down by almost 40 per cent. People applying now to the federal skilled worker program can expect to receive a decision within one year compared to six years under the old system.

　　The consultations will be held with national and regional stakeholders, provinces and territories and the general public between now and April 16, 2010.
