March 29, 2018 \u2013 New rules regarding applications for a Certificat de s\u00e9lection du Qu\u00e9bec (CSQ \u2013 Qu\u00e9bec Selection Certificate) that can be received by the Minist\u00e8re will be in effect from\u00a0April\u00a01,\u00a02018 to August\u00a015,\u00a02018<\/strong>, inclusive. These new rules pertain to applications submitted by economic immigration candidates (skilled workers, investors, entrepreneurs and self-employed workers), as well as applications submitted under the Collective Sponsorship Program.<\/p>\n Note that the rules regarding the maximum number of applications received by the Minist\u00e8re do not change Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s immigration objectives. Consequently, for 2018, Qu\u00e9bec expects to admit between 49,000 and 53,000\u00a0immigrants.<\/p>\n The new application intake rules for the 2017-2018 Regular Skilled Worker Program will be maintained and extended until August\u00a015,\u00a02018. Consequently, for this Program, the Minist\u00e8re can receive up to a maximum of 5,000\u00a0applications for a Certificat de s\u00e9lection du Qu\u00e9bec (CSQ \u2013 Qu\u00e9bec Selection Certificate) by August\u00a015. Other details relating to this will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n Candidates with an\u00a0employment offer validated\u00a0by the Minist\u00e8re or who are temporary residents of Qu\u00e9bec and authorized to submit an application for a Certificat de s\u00e9lection du Qu\u00e9bec (CSQ \u2013 Qu\u00e9bec Selection Certificate) can do so at any time by using the\u00a0Mon projet Qu\u00e9bec\u00a0secure space.<\/p>\n Those who wish to submit an application under the Programme de l\u2019exp\u00e9rience qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise (PEQ \u2013 Qu\u00e9bec Experience Program) can also do so at any time by following the instructions related to the\u00a0PEQ.<\/p>\n For the period from April\u00a01,\u00a02018 to August\u00a015,\u00a02018, no applications for a Certificat de s\u00e9lection du Qu\u00e9bec (CSQ \u2013 Qu\u00e9bec Selection Certificate) will be received under the Investors Program, the Entrepreneurs Program and the Self-Employed Workers Program.<\/p>\n Given the large number of refugees whose applications are still being processed, the Minist\u00e8re has decided to extend the suspension of intake of new sponsorship applications already in effect until June\u00a030,\u00a02018. Consequently, no collective sponsorship applications will be received on or before August\u00a015,\u00a02018.<\/p>\n Remember that the Minist\u00e8re is currently working on modernizing the Qu\u00e9bec immigration system in order to select the persons who have the best chances of integrating into the Qu\u00e9bec labour market. Candidates under the Regular Skilled Worker Program will be the first to benefit from this new system based on the declaration of interest.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Source: Govt of Quebec<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" March 29, 2018 \u2013 New rules regarding applications for a Certificat de s\u00e9lection du…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5491,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-719","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nSkilled workers<\/h2>\n
