About Saskatchewan Entrepreneur Program

For individuals and families who are ready to establish, buy, or partner in a business in Saskatchewan, the SEP opens a pathway. Potential entrepreneurs can utilize this immigration route to grab business opportunities in this province. If you have taken this path and done business in Saskatchewan successfully for at least six months, you may apply for a provincial nomination. This can be followed by an application for Canada PR status. There are four steps in the Saskatchewan Entrepreneur Program process. They are as follows:

• Submit an EOI (Expression of Interest) to the SINP and take a place in the candidate pool.
• Get an invitation issued by the SINP to submit an application during a selection.
• Establish and run a business in Saskatchewan.
• Get a provincial nomination.

Saskatchewan immigration authorities issue invitations to candidates from the EOI pool who rank the highest during periodic draws. Also read: A look back at Canada PNP draws that took place in August 2022
