SINP Proceedures and time line

[jayalal]

Hi all

I am in the process of SINP and have got a job offer from a Canadian employer as 'Business Development Officer'. When I contacted my consultant they told me that the job offer is sent for approval and only after getting the approval from the Canadian authority, they can apply for Nomination. But when i checked in the web site the approval is to be taken by the employer prior to give job offer to a candidate.I am little bit confused in this regards. Another word from my consultant is that after getting nomination we have to sent it for PR. Can any one tell me the exact steps icurred in the SINP program and the required normal time span?

http://www.saskimmigrationcanada.ca/sinp you can get all the information here. The Employer has to send copy of the job offer and contract to SINP who then reviews it and gives positive (or negative) response to Employer. The Employer sends you a copy of the letter and contract and then you must submit application to SINP

Hi Jayalal!

What info have you found? could you share it with me? I am in process of getting my job offer letter so this info could be very useful for me. As far completed processed, will have to search other threads, I myself am rather new here or would have helped.

 

[jayalal]

You may search the key word 'saskimmigration sinp' in google as i am not able to place the link for the website here. Every thing related to SINP is there. They mentioned about the normal time frame for each stage. But in actual the process may take more time they notified.

One thing i want to know that you are now in canada or in your home land. Actually where r u from?.

Although the Information is valuable ( and thanks for sharing )............but in current scenario, when people are waiting just for nomination for more than 18 months, we do not find any specific "Value" to this information...

I failed to understand where on earth they collected this info when facts are in stark contrast

SINP Skilled Worker with Job offer of course

case online 20.03.2012

status changed from "application received" to " in process" on 30.09.2012 ( AFTER 6 MONTHS)

Present Status: NO NEWS...waiting...and SINP claims 4.9 months ;D

i personally know couple of people from my country Pakistan on SINP skilled worker who are waiting more than 15 months for nominations

 

[A count ant]

wow, thats some real insight to the latest. thanks!

On SINP website they have mentioned it takes approximately 13 months for the whole process....that had me quite excited!

Let me see if I have the process in my mind, right.

- Relevant forums, job offer letter, supporting documentation( namely, copies of ID card, original passport, experience letters) are sent to CIC

- I am given a case number through email and my status goes to Application Received

- Once they start working on it the status goes to 'In Process'

- Now begins the wait for Nomination (my question at this point is, once you get the nomination, its pretty much clear that you have 'met' the criteria?)

- They request further documents like security clearance certificates, medicals etc and this is mostly it as far as sending documents from our end is concerned, right?

Happy new year greetings to everyone,

All the replays reveals the real picture as the SINP authorities are expressing that the average time line for the nomination process is 5 months. But here most of the process have already completed 7-15 months. But no satisfactory reply. And most interesting is that no one in this group got the nomination with in the average time. I don't know where the sinp authorities get the 'average time required'.

another this i am confused is that the average time required for nomination with out work permit is 4.9 months and with work permit 3 months. That means with work permit need lesser proceedings? or it means even if we got the work permit, our processing will remain continuing?

Oh!!!!!!!!!!!! confused :-\
