Quebec - Accelerated selection of skilled workers

In order to accelerate the selection and arrival in Québec of workers whose occupational profile corresponds to a job that is in demand, the Ministère de l’Immigration et des Communautés culturelles will give priority to certain applications for a Selection Certificate, as of October 14, 2009.

Applications that will be given priority are those submitted by skilled workers who have obtained a diploma in one of the fields in the 2009 List of Preferred Areas of Training during the five years preceding their application; if candidates have not obtained such a diploma, they must have practised an occupation, directly related to a diploma they have obtained and for which they are evaluated, for at least one year during the five years preceding their application.

This measure will apply to all applications received and not yet processed on October 14, 2009 as well as to those submitted on or after this date.

Applications submitted by candidates whose area of training is not included in the List will continue to be processed according to their order of submission.
