Quebec has now invited 1757 skilled worker candidates with Arrima profiles since July 4

Quebec issued a total of 162 invitations to apply for selection under the Quebec Skilled Worker Program, after holding two draws in October.

Details of the October 23 and October 29 draws have been released.

On October 23, Quebec invited 89 people to apply for permanent selection. These candidates were chosen based on Quebec’s labor market needs.

Candidates invited in this latest selection round were among the roughly 16,000 Quebec Skilled Worker Program (QSWP) candidates who had their original applications to the program canceled by the passage of reforms to Quebec’s Immigration Act. These changes were passed into law on June 16, 2019.

Additionally, they were either exempt from the cap that had been in place when they first applied to the Quebec Skilled Worker Program or were residing in Quebec on a study or work permit on June 16, 2019.

All those invited on October 23 had an Expression of Interest in Quebec’s online registration portal, Arima.

Then on October 29, 2019, Quebec invited 73 candidates to submit an application for permanent selection.

Those invited in that draw needed to have a valid offer of employment. Invitations were also sent to foreign nationals staying in Quebec carrying out official duties. Among other occupations, these officials included diplomats, consular officers, and representatives of an intergovernmental organization such as the United Nations.

Quebec has invited 1757 QSWP candidates with an Arrima profile since July 4.
