首先是2173和2171在不到兩周的時間內突然滿員，我們比較確定2173在8月13日之後簽收的客戶沒有能趕上今年的名額。以下轉自國外論壇Canadavisa:
2173 Aug 19 application returned. Did not fall in cap of 1000. Received package back.
I know this is real bad news for many. Sorry. Lets do it early next time.
目前2171仍在持續扣款中，具體幾號滿員還不確定。
這種突然滿員的做法讓我們對1123和1111等熱門職業非常擔憂。
另外一個消息是FSW 2014似乎會在今年底結束，下面轉自FSW剛剛更新的頁面：
Sending more than one application does not increase your chances of being accepted for permanent residence. All eligible applications received before January 1st will be considered for processing based on current guidelines. Fees will be charged for each one.
我想意思已經暗示地比較清楚，看來12月份會是今年最忙碌的季節。
