AGE LIKE A FINE WINE 🍷

Ageing like fine Wine / Delay has its own cost in the CANADIAN PR Application process.

The Ancient Greeks and Romans were aware of the potential of aged wines. In Greece, early examples of dried "straw wines" were noted for their ability to age due to their high sugar contents. These wines were stored in sealed earthenware amphorae and kept for many years. In Rome, the most sought after wines – Falernian and Surrentine – were prized for their ability to age for decades. In the Book of Luke, it is noted that "old wine" was valued over "new wine" (Luke 5:39).

The ageing of wine is potentially able to improve the quality of the wine. This distinguishes wine from most other consumable goods. AND the expression “AGING LIKE A FINE WINE” is used to describe a person. It is meant to compliment the person, saying the more they age, the better they become as a person, like wine (and unlike most other things, which get worse with age).

But ageing is a natural & irreversible phenomenon hence it must be taken seriously. Especially, if you are considering migrating/settling permanently in CANADA, you definitely should not, at all, take this factor lightly. For, this may cause you loss of eligibility points or even chance to apply for your CANADIAN PR. It is imperative and a fact that AGE should never be taken for a ride.

AGE and CANADIAN PR

In the CANADIAN PR process, age plays one vital role and a fine balance is to be maintained between young and old age. Too young won`t get you points and fine wine like ageing will cost you points. In short, there is a sweet age band within bands.

Young contributes for a longer time and old for a lesser time. Time value is in favour of the young in here.

If you have ever thought or dreamt or desired of getting CANADIAN PR, you must not waste time and get onto it asap and consult the experts. Sooner the better. The applicant's age is worth 12% of the overall selection criteria on the FSW (Federal Skilled Worker) selection grid. It is one of the variable factors which may result in a loss of at least 5 points or more every year when you hit your birthday.

Even though it looks like a small number but when surpassed it may result in losing a lot of points which can cost you your Invitation to Apply (ITA) from IRCC. Every single point can cost you a loss in ITA and the wait for the next draw to happen at the same score or less may or may not happen.
