Employment Offer
Saskatchewan Employment Offer is one of the International Skilled Worker streams of the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP), a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) operated by the province of Saskatchewan. Candidates who have an offer of employment from a Saskatchewan employer and who score high enough on the SINP Points Assessment Grid may submit an application to the stream at any time.
Candidates who are successfully nominated through the Saskatchewan Employment Offer stream will be invited to submit an official application for Canadian permanent residence.

Application Procedure
The Saskatchewan Employment Offer stream accepts applications from eligible candidates at all times. Eligible candidates may submit an application using the SINP Online Portal. This program does not have an application fee. If the province approves the application, Saskatchewan will notify the applicant that they have been selected for provincial nomination. This notification will be sent to the applicant by email. At this point, the applicant officially receives a provincial nomination, making them eligible to submit a federal application for Canadian permanent residence. After receiving a provincial nomination an applicant has six months to submit their permanent residency application. Applicants in this program must complete and submit a paper-based application for permanent residence and submit it by mail to the appropriate application centre. Paper-based PNP applications for permanent residence are generally processed within 18 months.
SINP Points Assessment Grid
The SINP Points Assessment Grid is out of 100 points. In order to be eligible for the program a candidate must score a minimum of 60 points. Please note that candidates will be required to submit supporting documentation with their SINP application demonstrating that they have met the 60 point requirement.
