At a Glance

  • The Quebec government has implemented more restrictive language, degree and profession requirements for the Quebec Experience Program and the Quebec Skilled Worker Program.
  • The new changes may prevent many foreign nationals, including temporary residents working or studying in Quebec, from applying for permanent residency in Quebec, as they may no longer qualify for a Quebec Selection Certificate under the restrictive rules.
  • It is likely that the government will provide further details for these changes in the upcoming weeks as these changes are controversial and highly restrictive to immigrants in Quebec.

The situation

The Ministry of Immigration Francisation and Integration (MIFI) has published new, stricter requirements for the issuance of Quebec Selection Certificates (CSQs) for the Quebec Experience Program (PEQ) and the Quebec Skilled Worker Program.
