Immigration & Visa so far
Eligible skilled workers can immigrate to this prominent province in Canada and start a new life. Over the period, the authorities recognized the inefficiency of their immigration system, and hence, Quebec immigration has undergone a set of amendments in the past favouring immigration aspirants. Earlier, the Quebec immigration application was submitted in hard copy. It had a quota system for selecting eligible candidates by limiting the number of applications accepted and closing the receipt of applications after a specific date, affecting the availability of eligible skilled workers for the province. It also caused a backlog in their immigration procedure due to the first come, first served policy.
Towards reducing the waiting period for selected foreign workers, enhancing the efficiency of the Quebec immigration system, and offering equal opportunity to all eligible applicants, the new immigration process was launched by the Quebec Immigration Ministry in 2018. The point-based initiative introduced by the ministry works independently. It is not in any way related to the Canadian immigration program for skilled workers. It is of paramount importance to understand the Quebec Skilled Worker immigration program, affirm that you are eligible to apply under this program and undertake the procedure systematically. All the documents are required to be submitted, and the application is to be filled out correctly to avoid visa rejection.

The Quebec Skilled Worker (QSW) program necessitates that the individual candidate scores at least 50 points. Then only he or she would be considered for immigration as a Quebec skilled worker. Those applicants planning to immigrate with a spouse or common-law partner should score a minimum of 59 points for consideration under QSW.
The Quebec Skilled Worker immigration program is one of the easiest immigration programs to process. Those meeting the eligibility criteria, including the points required, can immigrate to Quebec without any difficulty.
No, the Quebec Skilled Worker program does not require immigration applicants to have a valid job offer. The candidates planning to get financially well with their skills and qualifications and would like to settle in Quebec are selected by the Quebec immigration authority.
CSQ is the Quebec Selection Certificate, or Certificat de Sélection. Post-receipt of the CSQ from Quebec authorities, the applicant can continue with the immigration procedure.
In August 2018, Quebec reformulated its rules and regulations of its nominee program. The newly announced Expression of Interest (EOI) system replaces Quebec’s current first-come, the first-served application process for its Quebec Skilled Worker Program (QSWP). Anyone interested in immigrating to Quebec can submit an online Expression of Interest profile to Quebec’s Immigration Ministry (MIDI).
You are eligible for this category if:
Once you met with the above requirements your employability, age, language proficiency, time spent in Quebec and family in Quebec and a validated employment offer come into play. Though a job offer is an added advantage, it is not a must to qualify for the QSWP program.
Finally, you must reach the minimum passing score while adding your spouse’s/common-law partner’s education, experience language proficiency, number of children and financial self-sufficiency.
Meeting with the minimum threshold in the point grid doesn’t guarantee that you will be invited to apply for a Quebec selection certificate. A foreign national’s ability to successfully stay or settle in Quebec, such as training or trade or occupation” may determine invitations. Also according to Quebec’s Immigration Act, section 44 states that “a region of destination in Québec, a country or region affected by a humanitarian crisis or the existence of an international commitment may play a vital role in getting selected.” Once you are invited, you will get 60 days to file your application.
