Does your employer have a SINP job approval letter (Government approved)? As per the site,

  • Once a candidate is nominated they'll receive a Work Permit Support Letter along with their Nomination Certificate. They can use this to apply for a temporary work permit to allow them to live and work in Saskatchewan while they wait for permanent residency.

Hi!

Yes, the job was approved, and I applied for sinp.

But i am not sure for which type of temporary working visa i can apply with my noc and work support letter?

Is that lmia exempt or not and if so does my employer have to pay 230$ fee?

Thank you so much for the answer

Btw i am outside canada

Your employer would have provided you with a SINP work support letter. Once you are nominated and have your nomination certificate and your SINP work support letter, you apply for a work permit (no LMIA). The employer should know this so talk to them.

Thank you and congratulations, you are flying soon. My employer is just about to respond and submit the requirements to SK government for the job approval. I can't wait to know if it will be approved or not because it is his first time. Hoping for positive feedback.

Yes, the trip is planned for 30.07 :)

It was my employer's first time to apply for this type of SINP as well.

My advice to you is that brace yourself for the next six months.. That is how long it will take.

Thank you for the kind words, it made me feel better about my application. I hope you get to share an overview of the process and requirements when you have the time so I/we get to read it as our guide. I will be taking the same path as you, only with additional OWP for my partner. If you don't mind, what is your NOC?
