FAQ
What's the SINP application fee in 2026?
CAD 350 — among the lowest PNP fees in Canada. Significantly cheaper than OINP CAD 1,500 or BC PNP CAD 1,750.
Can I apply to SINP without a Saskatchewan job offer?
Yes — the SINP Express Entry stream and SINP Occupations In-Demand stream accept candidates without an employer offer. Both require federal Express Entry profile (for Express Entry stream) or Saskatchewan target NOC eligibility.

Not a dedicated tech stream like BC PNP Tech. But SINP Express Entry has targeted draws for IT-related NOCs (software developers, data analysts). Saskatoon and Regina tech sectors drive ongoing demand.
