First-Serve System: System and Intake Process

first-serve system: Then just before Christmas, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada announced an overhaul of the intake process for the 2017 parent and grandparent sponsorship program, according to The Waterloo Record. Instead of continuing the old system that usually saw spots run out within days, officials have adopted a lottery system to award the spots and will randomly draw 10,000 individuals from the pool and invite them to submit full applications. In November, in order to have a better chance at securing his parents a coveted spot in the first-come, first-serve system, he hired a courier to make sure the application would be hand-delivered to the Immigration Department's Mississauga processing centre on Tuesday as soon as the office opened its door to accept applications. That means all the efforts Dodero made in the last few months to compile documents for his parents in Venezuela are in vain, with a new application kit and guide coming next Monday. The expenses are nonrefundable. Dodero has already spent 250 on the mailing fees and another 200 to a local courier. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
