International Skilled Worker EOI System: How Does It Work?

The Saskatchewan International Skilled Worker Expression of Interest (EOI) system is a method employed by the province of Saskatchewan in Canada to select potential immigrants who possess the necessary skills and experience to meet the labor market needs of the province. The EOI system is a key component of the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) and aims to attract individuals with the ability to contribute to the province's economy and integrate successfully into the community.

The EOI system operates on a points-based system aka Saskatchewan points calculator - where candidates submit an online profile expressing their interest in immigrating to Saskatchewan. The profile includes information regarding their education, work experience, language proficiency, age, and other factors considered for immigration selection. Based on this information, candidates are assessed and assigned a score.

The Saskatchewan EOI system operates under a two-step process. In the first step, candidates must meet the minimum requirements to be eligible for the program. These requirements include having a valid language test result, educational credentials assessment (if applicable), and relevant work experience in an occupation that is in demand in Saskatchewan.

In the second step, candidates who meet the eligibility criteria are entered into the EOI pool and assigned a score based on the information provided in their profile. The highest-scoring candidates are invited to apply for a provincial nomination through regular draws conducted by the SINP. The selected candidates receive a nomination certificate, enabling them to apply for Canada PR.

The EOI system allows Saskatchewan to efficiently manage its immigration intake by selecting candidates with the highest potential to contribute to the province's economy and society. It provides a transparent and streamlined process, ensuring fairness and equal opportunities for skilled individuals interested in settling in Saskatchewan.
