Skilled Worker Saskatchewan

One of the best provincial programs for working immigration to Saskatchewan is the Skilled Worker Saskatchewan program (SINP – International Skilled Worker Category). One reason for the popularity of the Skilled Worker Saskatchewan program is that it allows applicants to obtain permanent residency without Canadian work experience or education in Canada.

If you’re also looking to immigrate to Canada through the Skilled Worker Saskatchewan program, stick with us to see if you qualify for this program. We will also explain all the rules of the Skilled Worker Saskatchewan system that you need to know. We won’t leave any questions unanswered and will provide you with all the information you need.

Occupations in demand in Saskatchewan.

Any job classified under TEER categories 0, 1, 2, or 3 in the Canadian NOC that is not among the province’s exempt occupations is considered a job in demand in the province.

Your job may not be on the list of restricted jobs and could actually be in demand in the province, but you still might not receive an invitation in the draws. This happens because the province updates the jobs needed in its labor market and periodically sends invitations for certain in-demand occupations.

If you are applying to the Saskatchewan skilled worker program under the job offer subcategory, your proposed job could fall under the province’s exempt occupations. Only in the Express Entry subcategory and the in-demand occupations subcategory does your work experience need to be among the occupations in demand and required in the province.

What is the Saskatchewan Expression of Interest (EOI) system?

The Expression of Interest, or EOI, is a process that happens before submitting an application to the province. You need to register in this system and enter your information. Individuals with different conditions earn various points according to Saskatchewan’s points system.

These individuals’ files, along with their points, are placed in a pool of applicants. However, this pool is different from the pools you might be swimming in! In this virtual pool, called a pool, there are individuals’ files with various points and conditions. Your file in this pool is like a fish that needs to be caught by the fisherman (Saskatchewan immigration office).

Typically, a draw takes place twice a month. In these draws, which have nothing in common with lottery draws for prizes, the province selects individuals with the desired score from a pool and issues an Invitation to Apply. Thus, the selection process is competitive, not random, and the higher the score, the better the chances of receiving an invitation.

Note that this system is only for those who want to apply through the in-demand occupations method or Express Entry. Individuals with a job offer from Saskatchewan do not need to express interest.

In the tables below, you can see the minimum scores for applicants in each subcategory of the Saskatchewan Skilled Worker program, for which invitations were issued in 2021 and 2022.

The Saskatchewan Skilled Worker point system

The Saskatchewan Skilled Worker point system evaluates candidates based on five factors: education level, work experience, language skills, age, and connection to the Saskatchewan job market.

Candidates must score at least 60 out of 110 points across these five factors.

Selection Factor Points
Education and Training Maximum 23 points
Specialized Work Experience Maximum 15 points
Language Skills Maximum 30 points
Age Maximum 12 points
Connection to the Saskatchewan Job Market Maximum 30 points
Total Maximum 110 points
Passing Score 60 points

Factor 1: Education and Training

To earn points for education in this subcategory, candidates must provide a copy of their diploma, certificate or degree for each completed course along with their transcripts.

Education and Training Points
Master's or Doctorate 23
Bachelor's degree or a 3-year college or university diploma 20
Technical and vocational certificate equivalent to a Journeyperson in Saskatchewan 20
Degree or diploma or certificate from a full-time program of at least two years or an equivalent certification 15
Degree or diploma or certificate from a full-time program of at least one year or a certificate equivalent to a technical and vocational degree 12

Factor 2: Specialized Work Experience

Points for specialized work experience are awarded based on employment records, with two points added for each year of work experience in the last five years, and one point for each year of work experience the applicant had 6 to 10 years ago.

To earn points from this factor, the applicant must demonstrate that they have at least one year of full-time work experience or the equivalent part-time experience in their chosen job.

From the first year to the fifth year leading up to the submission of the application points
5 years: 10
4 years: 8
3 years: 6
2 years: 4
1 year: 2
From the sixth year to the tenth year leading up to the submission of the application:
5 years: 5
4 years: 4
3 years: 3
2 years: 2
1 year: 0

If the applicant has 3 years and 8 months of work experience, only the 3-year experience score will be counted. Therefore, to get the 4-year score, they must have completed four full years of work.

Factor 3: Language Skills

The applicant will receive points based on their proficiency in either English or French. If they also provide a second language certificate, their points will increase.

The applicant must achieve a minimum CLB 4 score.

First language skills (English or French)
CLB 8 or higher: 20
CLB 7: 18
CLB 6: 16
CLB 5: 14
CLB 4: 12
Native French speakers or English speakers without language test results: 0
Second language skills (English or French)
CLB 8 or higher: 10
CLB 7: 8
CLB 6: 6
CLB 5: 4
CLB 4: 2

Factor 4: Age

Age: Points
Under 18 years: 0
18-21 years: 8
22-34 years: 12
35-45 years: 10
46-50 years: 8
Over 50 years: 0

If you are 34 years and 9 months old, the age score of 34 will be calculated for you. In fact, to receive the age score of 35, you must be at least 35 years old. Additionally, if you apply at 34 years of age and receive an invitation, your age increase after that date will not negatively affect your score.

Factor 5: Connection to the Saskatchewan job market and adaptability

Applicants earn points based on their connection to the Saskatchewan job market and their ability to successfully settle and establish themselves in the province.

What does a multi-step process mean in provincial programs?

First, you need to know that the organization granting you the visa to enter Canada and permanent residency is Citizenship and Immigration Canada, not the Saskatchewan Immigration Office. You start by submitting your application to the Saskatchewan Immigration Office, and if they approve it, you receive a nomination. After that, you send your application to the federal immigration office for permanent residency, and if that office approves it, you get your permanent residency confirmation.

Step One: Applying for the Province

If you want to register your application under the in-demand occupations and the Express Entry sub-category, you first need to register in the OASIS system and create a user account. Then, you need to fill out an online form and provide your details. This information includes personal details, passport information, your residence address, work history, education, language proficiency, and so on.

Finally, once your information is confirmed, your score will be displayed based on the details you entered. You then need to submit your application. After this step, you’ll enter the pool of applicants in Saskatchewan. Express Entry candidates must first create an Express Entry profile before moving to this stage.

At this stage, Saskatchewan typically sends out invitations or Invitations to Apply (ITA) to those who have expressed interest, about twice a month on average. If you receive one, you need to complete your documents in your profile in the OASIS system and pay the fees within 60 days, then submit your application and wait for the province’s nomination.

Step Two: Review by the Province

In this step, your application is reviewed to determine whether you’ve submitted all the required documents. If all the documents are complete, your application moves on to the next evaluation stage. If any documents or information are missing, your application will be closed, and you’ll have to start the process all over again.

During the evaluation phase, it will be assessed whether you meet the program’s requirements based on the documents and information you provided. If the province needs more information or documentation, it will notify you via email and through your profile, and you’ll have ten days to submit it.

Step Three: Nomination by Province

In this step, if your application is approved, you will be issued a provincial nomination. Essentially, the province informs the federal immigration office that they need you based on your qualifications and thus requests the federal immigration office to grant you permanent residency after a review.

Step Four: Submitting the Permanent Residency Application

For applicants in the job offer sub-category and the in-demand occupations sub-category, an email containing the nomination and information about how to send documents to the federal immigration office will be sent to you. At this stage, the province of Saskatchewan notifies the immigration office that you have received a provincial nomination. You must send your documents in paper form to the federal immigration office within 6 months. After reviewing, the federal immigration office will confirm your permanent residency.

For express entry sub-category applicants, the province enters your nomination information into the express entry system. You have to accept or decline this nomination within 30 days. Then, a lottery for individuals with provincial nominations will be held, and the federal immigration office will send you an invitation to apply. Finally, you have 60 days to submit your application along with the required documents and information in your profile. The federal immigration office will confirm your permanent residency after reviewing your case.

How much does the Saskatchewan Skilled Worker Program cost?

The fee for processing the application by the province for applicants in the in-demand occupations sub-category and the express entry sub-category is CAD 350. In this regard, it doesn’t matter if you are married or single. In the job offer sub-category, the applicant does not need to pay any fees to the province.

After the province’s review, during the case assessment by the federal immigration office, you need to pay the following fees:

Fee Item Applicant Applicant’s Spouse Each Child
Application Processing Fee CAD 950 CAD 950 CAD 260
Permanent Residency Fee CAD 575 CAD 575
Fingerprinting Fee CAD 85 If the applicant has a spouse and child CAD 170 for the entire family (applicant; spouse; and children).

Frequently asked questions

Who needs to provide a language certificate for the Saskatchewan Skilled Worker Program?

If English or French is not your first language, you need to provide a language certificate. However, individuals whose jobs fall under specific technical occupations, even if they are native speakers of French or English, must provide a language certificate.

 

Bonds, bank cards, gold, cash, or residential or commercial property deeds are not accepted.

 

In this program, the field of study is not important, and work experience is what matters. However, you should note that in most cases, to qualify to work in that occupation, you must have obtained a degree in the related field of study. The in-demand jobs in the province are determined by the local job market, and invitations are issued for certain jobs during each draw.

Considering the easier conditions in this province compared to other provincial methods, the Saskatchewan Skilled Worker programs are among the best and easiest ways to obtain permanent residency. For example, the ability to apply without Canadian study or work experience, with a higher age, and without a job offer are among the advantages of the Saskatchewan Skilled Worker method.

 

This depends on the program you are using. In most cases, it takes about 6 months for the province to review the documents. Then, after receiving the nomination, it is time for the review by the Federal Immigration Department. This process takes about 6 to 19 months depending on whether the process is online or paper.
