Canadian province of Saskatchewan calls eligible skilled workers to migrate

In the latest Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) draw held on February 13, the province invited 646 candidates from the Express Entry and Occupations in Demand sub-categories to apply for provincial nomination for permanent residence in Canada. Saskatchewan, which is one of the Prairie provinces of Canada, invites candidates with the skills and work experience which are in demand in the province in such draws. The candidates who receive provincial nomination from Saskatchewan become eligible to apply for permanent residence in Canada.

The February 13 draw invited those who had submitted an Expression of Interest profile with the SINP and demonstrated the skills and qualifications to succeed economically in the province.

In order to receive an invitation to apply for provincial nomination from Saskatchewan through Express Entry or Occupations in demand sub-category, a candidate must first submit an Expression of Interest to the SINP. They must also prove their eligibility to be nominated for permanent residence in Canada on the basis of five factors, which are work experience, education qualification, language proficiency, age and previous connections to the province.

Each Expression of Interest profile submitted to the SINP is assessed on the basis of these eligibility factors and awarded a score out of 100. The highest scoring candidates are invited to apply for provincial nomination from Saskatchewan. The lowest score of the candidates selected in the February 13 SINP draw, in both sub-categories, was 70. Among those selected in the draw are managers, human resources professionals and financial sales representatives.

Following are the two sub-categories of SINP from which candidates were selected in the February 13 draw:
