Through this program, prospective immigrants with the skills and experience targeted by the province may obtain Canadian permanent resident status after receiving a nomination certificate from Saskatchewan.
The SINP was one of the most popular Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) throughout 2015, with 2016 expected to see a similar level of demand for immigration to Saskatchewan.
