Popular Express Entry Immigration Category in Saskatchewan Reopens

The Canadian province of Saskatchewan has reopened its International Skilled Worker – Express Entry immigration sub-category for 500 new applications. This popular sub-category forms part of the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP), through which the province welcomes new permanent residents who have the ability to settle and establish themselves economically.

News of the reopening of the Express Entry sub-category on February 14 is likely to prove popular among eligible candidates who have been waiting for the sub-category, which most recently reopened on January 4, to reopen once again. If this application intake is anything like previous intakes, it is likely that the quota of 500 applications will be filled within days, or even hours.

Through this sub-category, eligible candidates in the federal Express Entry pool may apply for a provincial nomination certificate from Saskatchewan. A provincial nomination certificate obtained through this sub-category gives the candidate 600 additional points under the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), ensuring that he or she secures an Invitation to Apply (ITA) at a subsequent draw from the pool.
