Saskatchewan once again proves that it is the most welcoming province in entire Canada by inviting 595 more candidates to apply Canada PR through Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program as on 20th December 2019. These invitations were divided into candidates from two categories that are Express Entry and occupations in demand.

While job offer is no where a mandatory requirement but filing an Expression of interest with SINP and at least one year experience in occupation related to the field of study in the demand list of the province is compulsory. Candidates with eligible Expression of interest are granted scores on the basis of age, qualification, work experience, language skills, connections in Saskatchewan etc..  out of 100 according to Points Assessment Grid. These scores ranks the candidates in the EOI pool wherein the highest scoring applicants are selected and issued invitations accordingly through draws.

Through Express Entry Sub Category
