Quebec Skilled Workers
Quebec has its own immigration requirements and selects immigrants who will
adapt well to living in Quebec.
Quebec-selected skilled workers must apply in two stages.
You must first apply to the Quebec government for a certificate of selection
(Certificate de selection du Quebec). This is the official document that shows that
the Government of Quebec has accepted you to that province. If you are
interested in living in Quebec, you must first be issued a Selection Certificate by
the province of Quebec.
After you have been selected by Quebec, you have to make a separate
application to Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) for permanent
residence.
You will have to have a medical exam and obtain a police certificate. You must
also show that you have enough money to support yourself and your family after
you arrive in Canada.
Quebec-selected skilled workers are not assessed on the six selection factors of
the Federal Skilled Workers Program.
