Another immigration screening of the city of Sudbury has taken place
A portion of the rural and northern program invitations.
On Dec. 14, the city of Sudbury you Ontario held a some immigration prank in which it sent out just 39 invitations.
35 of them are for the main stream candidates. They had to score at least 240 points. This is 10 points less than in the previous selection November 30.
The main stream considers applicants who have received a job offer in one of the eligible occupations. The list includes specialties in the fields of:
- management;
- business, finance and administration;
- natural and applied sciences;
- healthcare;
- education;
- catering;
- tourism and hospitality business;
- agriculture;
- production and utility services and so on.
A full list of occupations is available on Sudbury's official website.
Another 3 invitations were received by applicants from the French-speaking stream. And for them, the passing score has increased to 170 points. However, it is still much lower than for the main stream applicants, and this is very good news for all those who want to immigrate and know French at the same time.
Finally, the last single invitation was sent as part of a special limited stream. Under it, Sudbury can send a maximum of 24 invitations per year and no more than two per draw. Limited stream candidates must earn up to $20 CAD per hour and have one of the following occupations:
- retail supervisors;
- supervisors in the foodservice industry;
- retailers and visual merchandisers;
- meterdotels and hosts/hostesses;
- bartenders;
- food and beverage servers;
- cashiers;
- storekeepers, clerks and order pickers on store shelves;
- food counter attendants, kitchen assistants and related support occupations;
- cooks.
This candidate scored 300 points. They are awarded in Sudbury for age (as opposed to Express Entry advantage for the 30-45 age group), work experience, knowledge of French in addition to English, and demand for the profession.
Sudbury runs its shenanigans under the Rural and Northern Immigration Program of Canada (RNIP). It was created to connect foreign workers with Canadian employers from labor shortage communities. These selections have been in place since 2020, and similar draws are being conducted by another 10 communities across Canada.
