How does this compare to other SINP draws?
The points cut-off for this draw has increased significantly since the last round of invitations. The lowest score targeted has not been this high since September 2020. Furthermore, under the SINP eligibility grid, applicants can score a maximum of 80 points out of 110 from ‘labour market success factors’ which take into consideration an applicant’s age, education, work experience and language proficiency. The cut off for this draw was 82 points, therefore any successful applicant under this draw must have also claimed points for a connection to Saskatchewan. A qualifying connection to Saskatchewan could include a high-skilled job offer from a Saskatchewan employer, a close relative in the province, or past Saskatchewan work or study experience.
What is an Education Credential Assessment?
Since many applicants have not completed education in Canada, an Education Credential Assessment (ECA) is a report that helps determines the Canadian equivalency of an applicant’s education credentials. An ECA report from an organization designated by the IRCC is required for many economic immigration programs in Canada. Those invited in today’s draw had an ECA report.
