SASKATCHEWAN UPDATES "IN-DEMAND OCCUPATIONS LIST"

Updated in-Demand Occupations list

Of the 33 in-demand occupations on the updated list, seven occupations do not require candidates to obtain specific professional licensure. The other 26 occupations do, however, require professional licensure from the licensing bodies designated by the Government of Saskatchewan. In many cases, the licensure process may be completed from outside Canada.

Candidates do not require a job offer to apply to the Express Entry sub-category. However, a minimum level of work experience related to their field of study or training in a skilled occupation (NOC 0, A, or B) on the SINP’s In-Demand Occupation list is required.

Applicants need to score a minimum of 60 points out of 100 on the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) point assessment grid.
