YOUR LONG-TERM PATHWAY
Residency to citizenship
- 01
Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan nomination through eligible employment and skills pathways aligned with provincial priorities.
- 02
Permanent residence
Apply for federal permanent residence and pass the applicable admissibility checks. A provincial nomination is not the grant of permanent residence.
- 03
Canadian citizenship
As a permanent resident, accumulate at least 1,095 days of physical presence in the previous five years. Eligible pre-PR temporary days count as half-days, up to 365 days. Tax filing, language and citizenship-test requirements apply where required.
Citizenship is based on actual qualifying presence. Simply holding a Canadian permit or owning a business does not meet the residence test.
Each stage requires its own qualifying conditions and decision. The years shown are eligibility periods, not approval times.
