Introduction to Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan is one of the prairie provinces of Western Canada. It is home to one of the country’s most rapidly growing economies and populations, thanks largely to an influx of immigrants from around the world. Its economy is primarily based on agriculture and important natural resources industries like forestry and fishing. It boasts two major cities, Saskatoon and Regina, as well as vast expanses of pristine wilderness.

Why Choose This Province
The SINP (Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program) Student Category
This Provincial Nominee sub-category is open to eligible students with a minimum one-year post-secondary degree and six months’ work experience while on a valid post-graduate work permit. Students who have graduated outside Saskatchewan have another option. In this case, a two-year post secondary degree work experience is required, while two years work experience must be gained in province on a valid post-graduate work permit. In either case, a job offer – or certification in a designated trade – is required.
