The RSWP is a popular choice for individuals looking to settle in Quebec, a province known for its unique culture and strong economy. It offers a pathway to a new life in this vibrant and diverse Canadian province.

One distinct feature of the program is that it requires candidates to demonstrate their intention to live and work in Quebec. This involves signing a "Declaration of Interest" (DI) with the Quebec government. Successful DI applicants will receive an invitation to apply for Canada PR.
