Below are some of the decisive factors for the applicants of the Family Members category:
•The age of applicants should be between 18-49 years.
•Applicants ought to have a signed written document which serves as the proof of support from their family member(s) living in the province of Saskatchewan.

•Applicants are required to have a minimum period of 1 year work experience in the field of their education or training.
•Applicants are obliged to have skill in English language to be employed in Saskatchewan.
•Applicants should possess a permanent, regular job offer from a Saskatchewan local employer.
This requirement of having a permanet, regular job offer from a Saskatchewan local employer seems to me as the biggest problem. Can somebody help me by explaining that how come it is possible that an employer offers you permanent job while you have no certainity that how much it will take for the visa processing.
ReplyDeletesometimes, visa processing takes upto 3 or 4 years. what about this??
i dont agree with this new rules either.this doesnt makes sense.it feels like this new rules is under the skilled worker category.so ,it doesnt really matter if they have family who is willing to support them here,its about the job offer.and even if we find a job offer for the family back home ,do you think employer here in saskatchewan will wait for more than a year for them.i dont think so..
ReplyDeleteI agree about you. I don't know what came up to their mind implementing this rules.
