Candidates had to meet the following criteria in order to receive an invitation in the August 19 draw:听

  • their application for selection submitted under the Quebec Skilled Worker Program was terminated, pursuant to Section 28 of Quebec鈥檚 Act to increase Qu茅bec鈥檚 socio-economic prosperity and adequately meet labour market needs through successful immigrant integration (the Act); and
  • they filed an EOI with the Minister before December 17, 2019; and
  • they were in one of the following situations:
    • their application, which was terminated under the Act, was submitted to the Minister under Section 5.01 of the Regulation respecting the selection of foreign nationals; or
    • they were staying in Qu茅bec on June 16, 2019, while they held a study or work permit issued pursuant to Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations.

Under the EOI system, candidates create a profile in Arrima and are awarded a score based on including their age, education, area of training, work experience and proficiency in French.

Candidates are invited to apply for a CSQ based on either their scores or other factors such as labour shortages in the province鈥檚 outlying regions.

Those who apply for and receive a CSQ then apply for permanent residence through Canada鈥檚 federal immigration ministry, which verifies medical and criminal admissibility.
