From May 4, 2013 onwards, Canada will have fresh points-arrangement for immigration even as the same will be targeted at the evaluation of the overseas people filing visa-petitions for arriving in the country of their dreams. The highlight of this fresh points-scheme will be getting hold of a job in the preferred domain of expertise by the new entrants turning-up on the Canadian soils.

The latest points system will also be apparently more focused on relatively young aliens who could be keen to arrive in the country to explore their destiny and make progress in their chosen field.

Apart from this, the applicants with superior levels of language skills (in either of the 2 given official languages of Canada), coupled with work experience generated in the country, will be given preference by Ottawa. Further, the latest points-scheme will necessitate those non-refugees, who do not have sponsorship from any Canada settled family members, to pocket not less than 67 test points for language skills, educational backgrounds, and/or other skill-sets, in case they have not less than 4 years of employment experience.

Furthermore, thanks to the new modifications made in the submissions submitted by the Federal Skilled Workers (FSW)–for successfully acquiring the prized Permanent Residency status in the nation—the aspirants will have to possess not less than 1 year of experience in work under the Canadian list of the 38 Highly Demanded Occupations.

As not every candidate come equipped with the same qualifications and backgrounds, chances are high that he will come across certain pressing issues in achieving the required pass marks. In a situation wherein an aspirant fails to get the needed pass marks, he has the option of getting adaptability points to make the cut.
