The International Skilled Worker category is one of the most popular immigration streams of Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) to nominate skilled, foreign workers in the province as permanent residents. It further gets segregated into three different pathways including,
- Saskatchewan Express entry
- Saskatchewan Employment offer
- Saskatchewan in-demand occupation
Saskatchewan Express entry:
Saskatchewan’s Express Entry is linked to the Canada Express Entry, and manages applications for its economic-class immigration categories- Federal Skilled Worker Class, Federal Skilled Trades Class, and Canadian Experience Class.
Candidates of Federal Express Entry Program who receive a provincial nomination must have a profile in Express entry pool. Provincial Nomination helps them to get an additional 600 points toward their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score as well as guaranteed invitation to apply for Canadian permanent residence.
Occupations In-Demand sub-category:
It is not linked to Canada Express entry. It targets foreign nationals with experience in occupations which are in demand in the province.
In the draw, 301 invitations went to express entry candidates and 275 went to Occupations In-Demand candidates
So if you want to consider your profile for a provincial nomination through either sub-category of SINP, then you need to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) with Saskatchewan. It requires information on education, work experience, proficiency in English or French, among other factors to score your profile out of 100 in the point-assessment table. Only the highest-scoring candidates receive invitations to apply for a provincial nomination through regular draws.
