Dear,
Thank you.

We are not yet ready to review simplified skilled worker applications. Please refer to the web site of the Citizenship and Immigration Canada to check status of your application at https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/?app=ecas&lang=en and processing times at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/international/menu-perm.asp.
All applications received prior to February 27 2008 will be processed according to the regulations in place at the time. Since you applied in 2006, your application will not receive expedited processing. Alternatively, you may consider to withdraw your application and re-apply under one of the occupations mentioned in the Ministerial Instructions. Since processing has not yet been initiated on your application, you are entitled to a full refund of fees paid with your application.
Thank you.
