Consider Saskatchewan for immediate immigration and settlement

6 February 2008: Immigration to Canada under skilled category may take up to 7 years, depending upon country from where you are applying and of course your luck as to when your case is taken up.

After immigration, settling in Canada in a good job also takes it own time, which can be frightening long in some cases. Why not consider Saskatchewan for settling down?

Under the immigration rules, one can apply for PnP (Provincial Nomination Program) for settling there, where the process takes about one year. In terms of expenses, it is slightly expensive, but the process is much quicker and you get more number of younger years to settle. Under PnP program, if you're considering immigration to Canada, and qualify for this Immigrant Nominee Program, your application would be processed on priority.

So far as employment opportunities are concerned, according to statistics, the province of Saskatchewan, Canada, is facing an impending labor shortage, as there are currently not enough young people in the province to satisfy fill positions in certain areas.

At this rate, by 2011, there will be a shortage of more than 200,000 workers in crucial sectors as healthcare, construction, fast food industry etc. This shortage crisis can actually grow as a result of imminent retirement and expanding industries.

Because neighboring provinces in Canada have no people to spare as they are facing their own labor shortages, Saskatchewan will need to look abroad for international workers if the needed help is not available shortly.

Saskatchewan has implemented a provincial nominee program to help speed up the application process for applicants who meet the requirements of that program.
