Hi,

Not yet, but I'm starting up a business right now, not really a business where I can hire employees though, but if I ever will, the job openings will be posted here for sure

Hi Vince,

Good day! I checked your site, thank you for all the information you provided.

I have a couple of questions regarding the chances of my cousin. He is single, 28 yr old
and has worked as an Electrician for more than 5 years and has a certification of Welding.

Is it really important for him to have a job offer before applying for SINP? is his profession
in demand in Saskatchewan now?

Would appreciate any of your advices. Thank you very much and Merry Christmas!

Hi totallymomy,

Yes he must have a permanent job offer before he can apply to the SINP.
Trades people like plumbers and electricians are always in high demand and can make a real good living over here. The ones I know are always extremely busy. I sometimes wish I was a journeyman electrician if I hear what those guys are making.

The only problem is if your training has been outside of Canada your certificates and diploma's might not be recognized. But if the company is in high need of an employee they would still consider a foreign worker. If you want to become a journeyman (getting the highest paid jobs) You will need to take some extra training and do some exams. But if the experience and knowledge is there then that shouldn't be a problem. Find info on SK apprenticeships here: http://www.saskapprenticeship.ca/
So go on www.saskjobs.ca and apply for jobs that fit the profile and don't stop until you find an employer that is willing to offer you a job.

Good luck
Vince

Hi Vince,

Thank you so much for your reply. I will advice my cousin to check out job links you recommended.
With regards to his Welding certification, it's accredited by TESDA which I believe is acknowledged in Canada.

Again thank you for all the information, it's greatly appreciated.
Will let you know if he will be successful with his application.

Hi shahzad0786,

It took us about 9 months to get the approval but I'm not sure what the current processing time is, the SINP website states 4 to 8 months.
http://www.immigration.gov.sk.ca/general-questions
I would contact them by email. That's what I did multiple times and they always responded in a timely manner.

Your second question is a tough one, I only give people advise if I'm 100% sure but I would think that you should have added her in the SINP application because they are approving you for immigration to their province and they should know who will be joining you. This would also be a good question to ask the SINP when you email them.

Good luck and I would like to know what the SINP has answered you, keep me posted.
Vince

Hi guys,

Did anybody get their nomination from the SINP lately?
I would be interested in finding out how long the process is these days since it has been a couple of years since we went through the SINP.

Thanks and good luck to all!

Hi Vince,

I am currently working as a senior software engineer in a big consulting firm in US on H1B visa. I want to apply for Canadian immigration and today I saw your post about SINP nominee program. I went through the eligibility criteria for this program and found out that I may be eligible under this program. But then I thought I should check with you that whether it is mandatory to have a job offer before applying under this program and my skill falls under skilled category A according to NOC classification. Also I took the CIC skilled worker self assessment test and my score was 72 and pass mark is 67, so that way it looks like I am safe. What will you say whether I should be applying under this program or not or should I get a job offer first?

I will really appreciate your prompt reply on this.

Thanks,
Roop

Hi Roop,

Yes you must have a job offer before applying. Processing times for SINP should be a lot faster then federal so if you are able to get a job offer in SK then go with the SINP. I would try out the job market at: http://www.saskjobs.ca and see if there are possibilities for you. Your work experience at a big consulting firm in the US should help in the job hunt.

Good luck,
Vince
