Immigration to Saskatchewan for skilled workers with employment offer

People who have found work in Saskatchewan can immigrate through the International Skilled Worker – Employment Offer stream.

The International Skilled Worker — Employment Offer stream of Saskatchewan's provincial program allows professionals who have received an offer of employment in the province in certain professions to immigrate.
