Canada Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP) – Temporary Foreign Worker Program

Employers may use this program to hire temporary foreign workers (TFWs) from participating nations for up to eight months, starting on January 1 and ending on December 15, as long as they can guarantee the workers 240 hours of work in no more than six weeks.

In order for a foreign national to be granted a work permit under the SAWP, they need to fulfill the subsequent criteria:

– possess a favorable LMIA from their first employment

– the going rate for that particular item;

– the activity needs to be associated with “primary agriculture on farms.”

– be a citizen of a country with a SAWP agreement

A New Healthcare Express Entry Draw 3,750 PR invitations were sent.

An additional Express Entry draw was held with the express purpose of issuing 3,750 invitations to apply (ITAs) for permanent residency (PR) with a focus on 35 healthcare occupations.

The Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) cutoff score was 445, which was just what we predicted for the June 27 Express Entry draw.

920 PR invitations sent in july’s first express entry draw.

920 Invitations to Apply (ITA) for Permanent Residency (PR) were issued out today in connection with the first Express Entry Draw of July.

All Express Entry profiles having a provincial nomination and a comprehensive ranking system (CRS) score of 739 or above were the focus of the draw.

It can be inferred that invited candidates, excluding the provincial nomination, had a CRS score of about 139 because the provincial nomination alone accounted for 600 CRS points.
