The City of Sudbury's new immigration screening
Welcome to the province of Ontario.
The City of Sudbury, Ontario reported the next round of immigration screenings on Dec. 21. A total of 42 invitations were sent out.
38 of them are distributed among the main stream applicants. The minimum score for them was 260, a full 20 points more than the previous draw from December 14.
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 given to candidates who know French. The pass mark for the Francophone stream has also increased to 185 points, but it is still noticeably lower than the threshold for the main stream.
But the passing score for the special Limited Stream is even higher than that of the main stream. The only candidate invited in this draw scored 275 points.
Under this stream, Sudbury can send a maximum of 24 invitations per year and no more than two per draw. To participate, candidates must earn up to CA$ 20 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.
Sudbury points are awarded for age (as opposed to Express Entry advantage for the 30-45 age group), work experience, knowledge of French in addition to English, and occupational demand.
