Federal Skilled Worker Quota Update<\/span> Current processing time for getting Educational assessment is close to 20-25 working days.<\/p>\n If you have already booked your IELTS before end of November or even in early December, you may still have an opportunity to be in the current assessment system.<\/p>\n The benefit of applying under current skilled worker category is that you will not need an offer letter from a Canadian employer. Once the Express Entry program starts, you will have to get an offer from a Canadian employer before applying. So after January 2015, the competition will be tougher.<\/p>\n Those applicants who take action have an advantageous opportunity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Federal Skilled Worker Quota UpdateAnother occupation under the Federal Skilled Worker Occupation list – Financial and Investment Analyst – […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,83],"tags":[158],"class_list":["post-2125","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-canada-immigration","category-new","tag-federal-skilled-worker-quota-update"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2125","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2125"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2125\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2127,"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2125\/revisions\/2127"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2125"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2125"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/canadianvisa.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2125"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
