while filling the settlement plan show them your intentions that how you find the job over there.have you communicated with some employers or have you sent them any emails. if yes then provide them the copies of that.
moreover, if your occupation is regulated in nova scotia, then how will you get license to practice that profession over there,
you just have to tell the research you have done over here about your occupation, the region in which your occupation is in demand, what are the first things you will do on arriving nova scotia.
& regarding job offer, yes this program is without job offer that i have told you earlier also but if you have any relatives in NS, then you can apply.
This might help you
it means is it compulsory to have relatives in Nova scotia with out relatives can we apply or not but I can't find any where that relatives must be there.
