How does the SINP work?

The Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) is a Canadian immigration program designed to attract Skilled Workers, Entrepreneurs, and Investors to the province of Saskatchewan. The program operates through an agreement between the federal government of Canada and the province of Saskatchewan.

The SINP offers several immigration streams, including the International Skilled Worker stream, the Saskatchewan Experience stream, and the Entrepreneur and Farm streams. Each stream has its own eligibility requirements and application process.

To apply for the SINP, candidates must submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to the program. Candidates are then assessed based on a points system aka SINP points calculator - and those who meet the eligibility criteria are invited to apply for nomination. Once nominated by the SINP, candidates can apply for Canada PR with the federal government of Canada.
