You can upload JPEG, if the upload is successful, it should be fine. By th way, you can use www.smallpdf.com to convert from JPEG to PDF online. I use it all the time.

Hi

I just found this thread for SINP intake but then when i was reading throughly, found (http://economy.gov.sk.ca/immigration/sinp-application-intake-thresholds) as below -

---
SINP Application Intake Thresholds
Important Notice: The SINP is still accepting applications to the International Skilled Worker Category from applicants with approved job offers. However, the intake threshold for International Skilled Worker applications without job offers has been reached for 2015. For information on finding work in Saskatchewan, visit Finding Work.
---

so what is the benefit now to apply for SINP? I think it will fail.

But this is International Skilled Workers - Express Entry subcategory, you should read that line in the Application Intake Thresholds as of April 1, 2015 table also see "The category application quota will be posted online and updated with remaining availability on a quarterly basis. When the category reaches the intake threshold, the website will be updated immediately and no further applications will be accepted."

The website says (http://economy.gov.sk.ca/immigration/sinp-application-intake-thresholds) "the intake threshold for International Skilled Worker applications without job offers has been reached for 2015".


BUT again, in the subsequent table it says for international skilled workers - express entry, remaining applications that will be accepted by the SINP in 2015 is 1000 as of April 1st 2015.


I think that the quota is finished for 2015 but they did not update in table. Experts, what is your assumption?

If you submit your application and the system status says 'Application Received', then you've made it within the CAP. You can't know until you try so please stop wasting time and apply.

Just the first and last page is enough.

Thanks mapleback.

Question: My actual NOC is 2147 and I found that this NOC is not available in SINP. But there is another NOC which is 2173 (Software Engineers and Designers) in SINP. I guess I should be able to obtain one job reference letter explaining NOC 2173.

Problem is I found only 1 NOC code can be put in to the EE profile. So if the NOC code in EE profile and in SINP profile is not similar, will it result in rejection for SINP? How to handle this situation well?

All,
Is this SINP still open?
In case we get in, should we stay only in this province? Or is there a chance to move later if opportunities come?
Hope someone can give advice.
Thanks!

SINP is still open. I called there. When the quota is over, you'll not be able to submit your application online.

Its more of whether your current job description for NOC 2147 in the reference letter matches the NOC 2173. If yes, you can re-use the same reference letter. Its more about job duties than NOC title. By the way 2173 is regulated in SINP so you will have to look into this matter and see how you can satisfy the regulation requirement (join a professional body as per SINP or get yourself assessed etc).

Problem is I found only 1 NOC code can be put in to the EE profile. So if the NOC code in EE profile and in SINP profile is not similar, will it result in rejection for SINP? How to handle this situation well?
Yes, both SINP and EE profile should match and difference can be a cause of rejection due to misconduct by providing incorrect information.

Friends,
Dont confuse this category with already reached category which was a different one.

This quota purely focuses on applicants registered in express entry and then choosing SASK, there after will be nominated to get 600 points IN EE.
SASK is still accepting applications for this category and limit is 1000.

One already filled was - Direct application to SASK
