Hello,

Here again needing your inputs!!
We already have got our PRs and currently, outside of Canada.

SINP Residency
Being SINP nominated EE PR, I understand we need to move to SK and try making it a home!

I work for a multi-national company and I'm trying to work out a transfer to its Canadian entity. I know they have offices in Toronto, ON & Vancouver, BC but not very sure of any in SK.

So, my questions:
  • Considering the tough job market, would it be wise to get transfer to my current employer's Canadian entity? This will make transition to Canada smooth & easy. Don't have to worry about looking for a new job.
  • Will it be OK if I'm asked to work out of ON / BC? ... say, for a year or so and then move to SK (even if it involves switching employment)
  • Will it be acceptable if I work remote from SK? (I don't know if they even allow remote but just exploring)
  • Is there any minimum period of stay in SK to satisfy SK Residency?
  • Would CBSA object if, while entering Canada via land border with goods, we say that initially we are going to be reside in Toronto, ON for a year & then move to SK? As we already have PR cards, does it even matter to CBSA while entering Canada?
University outside of SK
Linked to the above is also another question for university selection for our elder child.

For him to satisfy SINP residency, is it necessary for him to opt for university in SK or he is free to choose any university outside of SK? If parents reside in SK, child has opted for university outside of SK and comes home during breaks/vacation, will the entire period be considered towards satisfying SK residency?

We are concern that he should not have to limit his choices of the university because of SK residency requirement.

Appreciate your guidance.

So do you have any plans to settle in SK. You should be moving there as soon as you land. Land in Toronto and then fly to SK. You can work remotely in SK. The PA must settle in SK. Your child can study anywhere. Plan to stay a year.
