Saskatchewan PNP Draw

Saskatchewan held a new round of invitations on November 19.

The Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) invited candidates from the International Skilled Worker category through two subcategories: Express Entry, and Occupations In-Demand. They sent out a total of 551 invitations to immigration candidates who had work experience in certain occupations.

In order to be invited in this draw, candidates from both sub-categories needed to have submitted Expression of Interest (EOI) profiles with the SINP. Unlike the previous draw, each category had a slightly different score requirement.

The 214 Express Entry candidates needed an EOI score of at least 78 in order to be invited. This is the provincial requirement, not the Comprehensive Ranking System cutoff. Invited candidates had Educational Credential Assessments, and work experience in one of 56 occupations.

To see which occupations were invited, go to the government webpage.

The 337 candidates invited under the Occupations In-Demand subcategory also needed Educational Credential Assessments. A total of 75 occupations were included in this draw.

The SINP uses the EOI system to select the candidates that have the most potential to succeed in the regional labour market. Candidates need to demonstrate their commitment to building a life in Saskatchewan by showcasing their work experience, education, language ability, age, and connections to the province.

The SINP uses these five factors to assess candidates and give them a score out of 100 on the International Skilled Worker Points Assessment Grid. The highest-scoring candidates are then issued an invitation to apply for a provincial nomination from Saskatchewan.
