Overview of the Saskatchewan Express Entry stream

View flower in Saskatchewan
The Saskatchewan Express Entry (SEE) stream is one of Saskatchewan's PNP streams that does not require the candidate to hold a job offer to be eligible. However, the stream does require the candidate to have work experience in a set of in-demand occupations.

When receiving a nomination under the SEE stream, candidates can then apply for Permanent Residence to the federal government of Canada.
This stream is aligned with Express Entry, and if nominated, a candidate will receive an additional 600 CRS points in their Express Entry profile, thus guaranteeing an Invitation to Apply. With Express Entry, candidates can take advantage of the 6-month average processing times of applications.

The SEE stream has minimum eligibility requirements, however, the SINP does not send Invitations to Apply to every candidate that meets these minimum criteria. Each candidate, when entering the system, has a score (up to 100 points) that depends on multiple factors (explained in detail in the Eligibility Requirements section). In fact, the SINP conducts periodic SEE draws, and each draw has its minimum threshold score and the list of invited NOC occupation codes, and all candidates with scores above or equal to that draw's threshold and have experience in one of the NOC codes are invited to apply. More information is available in the Draw History section of this guide.

Eligibility Requirements

There are 3 main categories of eligibility requirements that we will summarize below. You can apply to the Saskatchewan Express Entry (SEE) stream if you satisfy to all the requirements below:

3. Settlement requirements:
You must show that you have sufficient funds to successfully establish yourself and your family in Saskatchewan. The amount needed and types of funds accepted can be found in the settlement funds guide. However, the main difference between the federal government's requirements (in the settlement funds guide) and Saskatchewan's requirements is that you need to have the funds for a minimum of 3 months before you submit your application. 

You must also provide a Settlement Plan, that can easily be created with this tool.

This is a tricky question and there are multiple situations that can happen. You can learn more about this subject on our dedicated article: Can I move to another province?

Does the Stream have In-Demand Jobs?

Some streams target specific NOC codes, meaning that if you have experience in those in-demand jobs, you either (i) have more chances to be invited or (ii) that you can be eligible to the stream.

In the case of the Saskatchewan Express Entry stream, there is indeed an in-demand occupation list. You must have work experience in one of the listed occupations below to be eligible to the stream (there are of course other criteria as mentioned in the Eligibility section above)
