Quebec, a populated industrial hub of information and service sector, is one of the important locales in Canada where most immigrants would love to migrate. The Canadian immigration department has therefore taken proactive measures to ensure that better, skilled and economically prospective workers migrate permanently to Quebec. Recently, the Canadian immigration laws have been tweaked a bit to attract specialized working members to Quebec
Why Quebec
The Quebec administration has the right to select immigrants who intend to reside within its jurisdiction. The categories slightly differ from what the federal immigration department stipulates for the immigrants. However, the strict policies, methodical selection processes, and assessments are same through which the skilled people are chosen for Quebec.
It is incredibly true that about 50,000 people migrate to Quebec every year, primarily to
Montreal - the economic heartland of Quebec. Most important corporate majors have opted to this place and as a result, created immense job opportunities for the manufacturing, technology, information, and software sectors.
Apart from Montreal, the Qu?bec City is also the hub for entertainment, tourism, and service sector. Quebec has been decked up by the administration. It appeals to the foreigners and as a result, thousands of immigrants migrate to this lucrative place through Canadian immigration process.
The Need in Quebec
Although Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) takes the final decision of selecting immigrates and granting them the visas, the selection process for Quebec province is a separate effort altogether. The skilled workers are chosen as per Quebec Skilled Worker / Professional category.
A special preference is given to the French speaking immigrants - in fact, this language is the official language of this central East province. Apart from specialist workers, people who wish to visit the place, study at an institute, work temporarily, or move over permanently can apply for Quebec immigration process.
The Selection Process
To get selected as an immigrant to Quebec, an applicant must seek permission from the Quebec government for selection. Once the provincial government has accepted the proposal, the candidate needs to apply to the CIC for approval. There are medical tests, security and credentials to be checked and approved at this stage. An applicant also has to substantiate whether he has adequate money to support himself and his family in Canada.
Selected Skilled Workers
Skilled workers with valuable educational qualification, work experience, superb communication and language skills, and a will be mingle with the Quebec culture and lifestyle are warmly welcomed by the Quebec administration. This qualification standard depends on the number of points scored by the immigrant who wishes to settle in Quebec.
Different people with different categories and status need to score specific points. For instance, a bachelor would need 50 points while a married couple would need 57 points to succeed in immigrant assessment qualification. A good knowledge about Quebec, substantial and effective work experience, language expertise, age and family, are some of the criteria based on which the points are scored.
Quebec government has provided a firm commitment to settle those who wish to work hard and build up the country's economy. And, Canadian immigration rules have also highlighted special clauses to meet the expectations of the Quebec industry.
