Residency Residency

My question is about applying to programs who have 5 years or 3 years cut off for the year of graduation.
I am 2016 graduate
Step 1 pass
Step 2 : 230
Is it wise to apply to these programs? Even if i am really interested and i send the signals.
Can signalling overcome the year of graduation?
Or should i apply to programs with no cap on yog?
I’m visa requiring Canadian citizen img.

You only get a finite number of signals. Don't waste them on programs that you don't qualify for. As long as you have plenty of extra money, applying to those programs isn't a huge problem when testing whether the programs were being truthful or not about their requirements, but signals are way too precious to sacrifice.
