Saskatchewan issued 363 invitations to apply for a provincial nomination on June 4, 2026, through the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP), as reported by Fathom Journal. The draw targeted candidates in the International Skilled Worker category, continuing the province's regular selection pattern for economic immigration.
This marks Saskatchewan's second SINP draw in June 2026, maintaining the province's consistent pace of issuing invitations roughly every two weeks. The International Skilled Worker category allows Saskatchewan to select candidates from the federal Express Entry pool or from applicants who have submitted an Expression of Interest directly to the province, giving the SINP flexibility to address specific labor market needs across multiple occupations.
The 363 invitations went to candidates who had already created profiles indicating their interest in settling in Saskatchewan. While the source does not specify minimum scores, occupation lists, or whether the draw included Express Entry-linked candidates or only Occupation In-Demand applicants, Saskatchewan typically uses these draws to fill gaps in sectors experiencing worker shortages. The province does not publish detailed score cutoffs or NOC breakdowns for every draw, so candidates should monitor their SINP online accounts for updates on their individual applications.
Provincial nominees who receive an invitation through the SINP and successfully obtain a nomination certificate earn 600 additional Comprehensive Ranking System points if they are in the Express Entry pool, effectively guaranteeing an invitation to apply for permanent residence in a subsequent federal draw. Candidates applying outside Express Entry follow a different pathway but still benefit from provincial support in their permanent residence application.
