Requirements for SINP

Each SINP category has its own set of requirements, but there are some general criteria that all applicants must meet to be eligible:

  • Possess the skills, education, and work experience required for the job or business opportunity in Saskatchewan
  • Have a genuine intention to settle in Saskatchewan, which can be demonstrated through your business plan, employment offer, or family ties

Process for Applying to SINP

The application process for the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program involves several steps, all of which VisaVio can help you navigate:

  • Submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) The first step is to submit an EOI, which demonstrates your interest in immigrating to Saskatchewan. The EOI system is used to select candidates who are most likely to succeed in the province’s labor market.
  • Receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) If your EOI is selected, you will receive an ITA from the Saskatchewan government. At this point, you can submit a formal application to the SINP.
  • Complete and Submit Your SINP Application VisaVio will assist you in preparing and submitting your application, ensuring that all required documents are included and properly formatted. The SINP application must include evidence of your qualifications, work experience, language ability, and financial resources.
  • Nomination from the Province of Saskatchewan If your application is successful, you will receive a provincial nomination, which you can use to apply for Canadian permanent residency through the federal immigration system.
  • Apply for Permanent Residency After receiving your provincial nomination, you will apply for permanent residency through Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). With VisaVio’s help, you can ensure that your application is processed as efficiently as possible.

VisaVio offers expert guidance at every stage of the SINP process, ensuring that you have the best chance of success.
