Quebec occupies a unique position in the Canadian immigration landscape due to its French language and cultural heritage. The province runs its own permanent immigration programs. One of the main immigration routes available to people wishing to settle in Quebec is the Regular Skilled Worker Program (RSWP).
Selection within the framework of the RSWP is based on the profile of the candidates, their level of education, their language skills, their professional experience and their possible links with Quebec.
As with the Express Entry (Federal) Skilled Worker Program, foreign nationals wishing to immigrate through the QSWP must first declare their interest in immigrating to Quebec by completing an expression of interest form ( EOI) on an online portal. The Ministry of Immigration, Francisation and Integration (MIFI) regularly selects people from the pool of candidates and invites them to submit an application for permanent selection.
