I would like to share Q&A for SINP Queries which had happened with Immigration Officer of SINP.This may help to any novice person before starting an application
below is the list
Q.I have a sibling in other Province,but i have no plans to move to that province in future.I want to stay in Saskatchewan.Is there a concern for Saskatchewan if sibling is living in other province?
A.If you have a sibling in another province the SINP may question your intend to reside in Saskatchewan. When applying please provide reason as to why you would like to reside in Saskatchewan over another province.
Q.For submitting an application ,do we need to wait for an announcement of Webpage of SINP or anyone can submit an application during anytime?
A.The International Skilled Worker – Express Entry and Occupations In-Demand subcategories are currently closed and not accepting additional applications at this time. Please check our website frequently for information on when these categories will re-open, as that is where such information will be posted when it becomes available. However, please note that the International Skilled Worker – With an Employment Offer, as well as the Saskatchewan Experience categories are open and accepting applications.
If you are interested solely in the Express Entry and Occupations In-Demand categories, you may create a pre-application that you can compose and submit when the category opens. Only one application can be submitted at a time. There is no schedule or notification system for when these categories are opening. To check on the availability of these categories please visit:
