What is SINP Program?
The Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) is a major part of the Saskatchewan Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), designed to attract skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and individuals with work experience in the province.
Under various categories such as the International Skilled Worker, Saskatchewan Experience, and Entrepreneur streams, the program addresses the unique economic and labour market needs of Saskatchewan.
The assessment process is based on factors like education, work experience, language proficiency, and in case of entrepreneurs, business acumen. By participating in the SINP, individuals can open up their path to Canadian PR while actively contributing to the economic growth and diversity of Saskatchewan.
For comprehensive details and application guidelines, prospective immigrants are encouraged to reach out to our immigration experts at Global Navigator.

- If establishing a new business in Saskatoon or Regina, applicants are required to sustain a minimum of two jobs for Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents in Saskatchewan, specifically non-relative workers.
- The applicant must maintain the business’ staffing complement (the number of Canadian or permanent resident workers) in place if purchasing an existing business in Saskatoon or Regina.
- Applicants must stay in Saskatchewan with their dependent family members.
- Successful applicants must sign a business performance agreement with the Government of Saskatchewan, provided by the SINP after the application is approved.

You would also need to start establishing your business or purchase as is mentioned in your Business Performance Agreement (BPA) on an immediate basis.
- Submit your Arrival Report Form and the list of documents. Within 12 months of your landing date in Saskatchewan submit your Business Establishment Progress Report to the SINP Entrepreneur category.
- To get your nomination, you need to satisfy the terms mentioned in your BPA within 2 years from the date of your TWP and also demonstrate operations of your business within 6 months of your arrival in Saskatchewan.
