Quebec Immigration and Its New Intake Targets For 2019

Planning for Quebec Immigration? Then, you need to hurry up since the province has declared its immigration intake. According to the Immigration Plan for 2019, the province will be welcoming up to 42,000 candidates as permanent residents.

It is expected that most of the admissions for Quebec will be through the economic immigration programs which include the Quebec Skilled Worker Program (QSWP). This Skilled Program aims to target a total of 59 percent admissions, i.e. nearly 23,450 admissions from the total immigration plan of 2019. Also, from the total admissions, 19,500 admissions are projected for the skilled workers.

Nearly 24,800 Quebec Selection Certificate or certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQs) are planned by the Quebec Ministry of Immigration for the year 2019. The candidates receiving a CSQ can then process for Permanent Resident Visa by applying to the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.

However, the Quebec immigration plan states that, the highest CSQs, i.e. up to 15,000 are issued to the skilled workers and then to the state-assisted refugees and sponsored refugees with 5,500.

The Regular Quebec Skilled Worker Program or the Quebec Skilled Worker Program and the Quebec Experience Class (PEQ) are the economic immigration categories. Also, this is the responsible for economic immigration. The candidates meeting the required areas of training, work experience, language proficiency in French /English are considered eligible for the program.

Hence, candidates planning to launch an application with the new immigration system need to process by creating an application. Then, they need to submit their profile through an online platform, known as the Arrima Portal.

The international students and foreign skilled workers with a plan to settle in Quebec should opt for the Quebec Experience Class.  The program ensures that, it selects candidates with advanced-intermediate French ability. Also, the applications received through this program are processes on priority.
