Immigrate Quebec Permanent Workers

Eligibility Criteria

Immigration to the province of Quebec is governed by a separate set of regulations. Quebec defines its own immigration requirements and selects immigrants who can adapt well to living there.

To apply for a Certificat de sélection du Québec (Québec selection certificate), applicants must create an account in the Mon projet Québec section and complete an application for a selection certificate online.

In order to qualify for CSQ, an applicant must be able to obtain enough points in the Quebec Immigration selection system. A single applicant requires at least 50 points, and an applicant with a spouse must be able to score a minimum of 59 points. A summary of selection criteria and the scoring system is as below:
