The Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) also know as Saskatchewan PNP (Provincial Nomination Program) initially launched in 1998 aims to fill the provincial labour market and economic gaps through immigration.
With the SINP, the Saskatchewan province selects applicants who submitted their Expression of Interest and want to settle permanently in the province.
Then, chosen applicants receive a nomination from Saskatchewan and can apply for permanent residency for the province.
Additionally, if the selected applicants create or have an Express Entry profile, then provincial nomination after invitation can get them 600 extra points.
Interested candidates should have a minimum score of 60 to create an Expression of Interest with Saskatchewan PNP. Click here to calculate your scores.
Then SINP draws are held typically every week and selected candidates are invited to apply. Below is the summary of SINP for 2022.

Saskatchewan held its latest Express Entry and in-demand occupation draw on December 21, 2022, inviting 468 candidates.
