        What is the process for applying for the Quebec Skilled Worker Program?

        There are two steps to apply for permanent residence in Quebec:

        Step 1: The very first step for Quebec immigration is to get a Quebec Selection Certificate (CSQ). Province of Quebec will only issue a candidate – CSQ when they are able to meet all the minimum requirements of the RSWP and can meet the demands of the labour market. CSQ signifies that Quebec has selected the particular candidate to settle in the province as a permanent resident.

        Step 2: After the candidate gets the CSQ certificate, they are now able to submit their application for Canadian permanent resident visa to the Immigration, Refugees & Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
