Saskatchewan Holds the First SINP Draw of 2024
Canada’s Saskatchewan holds the first round of invitations under the provincial program.
On March 7, 2024, Saskatchewan issued 35 invitations under expression of interest (EOI) selections. Of these, 14 were for candidates eligible for the Occupations In-Demand pathway. The remaining 21 went out to those with profiles in the federal Express Entry system of Canada. The minimum score requirement for all candidates was EOI 89.

26 occupations were targeted in the March 7 OINP draw. The occupations were selected based on their unique 5-digit occupation code per the National Occupational Classification (NOC).
