Saskatchewan Immigration invited 58 candidates via the SINP for the Entrepreneur Stream on 3rd March 2022.
In the Entrepreneur stream draw, the minimum score to qualify was 80 points on the SINP points assessment grid.
Due to Canada’s current travel regulations, exploratory visits that are completed on or after March 18, 2019, will be accepted. After travel restrictions are eased, then the visits must again be conducted within 12 months of EOI submission in order to be awarded points. Candidates must have completed the exploratory visit before EOI submission to claim points for an Exploratory Visit.
Requirements of the Entrepreneur Stream:
- Have a minimum of $500,000 (CAD) in Net Business and Personal Assets.
- Have at least three years of relevant business management or entrepreneurial experience gained in the past ten years.
- Plan to invest a minimum of $300,000 (CAD) in Regina and Saskatoon, or a minimum of $200,000 (CAD) in all other Saskatchewan communities.
