Definitely, Saskatchewan, you can apply a pnp while you are studying at Saskatchewan colleges.luvly3 said:Hi guys I just finished a 1 year program from ontario and I am thinking of going to either Saskatchewan or Manitoba to take another one year program... Which of the above mentioned province would be better for PR and jobs..
Check out the websites for the latest info but I have lived in Saskatchewan and there are a lot of very good paying jobs there. However, the pnp is slower when compared to Manitoba. So if PR is a priority, Manitoba might be a better option and I know from some of my friends that they have a lot of good paying jobs as well. Also, in my opinion, derived from my past experiences, Manitoba's PNP seems to be a lot more stable and they don't change rules as often as Saskatchewan. That said, Saskatchewan is working hard to improve their PNP.luvly3 said:Hi guys I just finished a 1 year program from ontario and I am thinking of going to either Saskatchewan or Manitoba to take another one year program...

Moral: They are both good, just depends on your personal goals and be sure to check the websites for the latest application categories and their requirements.
Good luck
Yes your are doing right decision. Saskatchewan is better than manitobaluvly3 said:Hi,
Thanks for the info.... I actually did some comparison between the 2 provinces from in obtained from their pnp sites, Manitoba seems easy on the eyes because it doesn't require a skilled job and it doesn't have caps but I am subconsciously tilting towards Saskatchewan because I feel it's more open and diverse in terms of the economy(jobs) plus it has more than one big city unlike Manitoba which has majorly Winnipeg which could make the competition really tough for good jobs... Don't know if I am right about this
really??? where is it mentioned? can anyone provide me the link regarding this...dental15 said:Definitely, Saskatchewan, you can apply a pnp while you are studying at Saskatchewan colleges.

I don't know much about Manitoba to tell you the truth but I just checked the SINP website and it is fairly simple. The threshold is a problem but for the most part, getting a skilled job in Saskatchewan is pretty easy. I did welding at Saskatchewan Polytechnic and was able to get a job before I even graduated. So if you like Saskatchewan, choose it by all means. Also, if you are a skilled worker, you can always apply for permanent residence through CEC like it did. All you need is a year's experience. But with this new express entry system, I am not sure of tough is it to get a LMIA. Anyhow, the bottom line is: If you wanna be in Saskatchewan, they will help you out. I have talked to the director once and they seem very flexible when it comes to helping applicant out.luvly3 said:Hi,

Yes with the new changes getting PR through CEC may not be easy that's why I am thinking of moving to Saskatchewan so I could have the PNP and CEC options... I have applied for admission into the civil technician program at Saskatchewan polytechnic.. Hoping I get in..

Divi707 said:hi iam coming to toronto for 1 year Pg diploma + 1 yr work permit ...
i wanted to know .. do i need to take another 1 yr course to get settled..so it wil be 2 yr study and 3 yr work permit????
or .. if i move to Saskatchewan or manitoba and do relevant or irrelavant jobs related to my studies can i get pr WITHIN 2 yrs ???
Just go to Saskatchewan or Manitoba to school and you are likely to get PR without studying for 2 yrs
I understand that you want to get PR as soon as possible. But trust me when I tell you DO NOT take short cuts. I am speaking from my personal experience. 2 years in too short to get PR. If at all possible transfer to a genuine 2 year long program at Saskatchewan Polytechnic and then get a 3 year long work permit. Choose a program that has value in Saskatchewan's economy (which is largely industrial based, after farming obviously). Get a job after that and permanent residence is going to be a piece of cake. And really once you graduate and are working on your PGWP, it is kind of like being a permanent resident.Divi707 said:hi iam coming to toronto for 1 year Pg diploma + 1 yr work permit ...

Cool man, good choice. I would have loved to be in the Civil technologist program. It is 2 years long but a lot more jobs and a lot better pay I think. But if you already have gone thru 1 year study in Canada, it kinda makes sense to stick with the technician program and then may be continue onto technologist or engineer after getting your PR. I am working to get into Civil engineering as well so I have looked into it quite a bit.luvly3 said:Yes with the new changes getting PR through CEC may not be easy that's why I am thinking of moving to Saskatchewan so I could have the PNP and CEC options...

Also, if you have already paid for your PG diploma in Toronto, you will probably have to get another 1 year long certificate and a skilled job to be able to get PR. Shoot if you have any more questions. Hope it helps.
