 Saskatchewan PNP points system

Under the Saskatchewan PNP, each candidate is assessed on the basis of a points system. In order to be assessed, the candidate must first submit an Expression of Interest (EoI) to the SINP, detailing their skills and qualifications. The EoI has to be submitted through the online application system of the province, named OASIS. The eligibility assessment of the candidate is on the basis of various factors such as age, education, work experience, language proficiency, adaptability, previous connections to the province etc.
Based on the assessment, each candidate is awarded a score out of 110. To enter the SINP EoI pool, the candidate must score at least 60 points.
For education and training, the candidates would receive a maximum of 23 points. The maximum points that can be earned for work experience are 15, and for language ability, the maximum points are 30. 12 points are awarded for age, and for previous connections to the province, the candidate receives 30 points.
