Quebec Immigration

Quebec has a special agreement on immigration with the Government of Canada. The province has its own rules for choosing immigrants who will adapt well to living there.

To immigrate to Canada as a Quebec-selected investor, entrepreneur, or skilled worker, you must apply in the following 2 stages:

Apply to the Government of Quebec for a Quebec Selection Certificate (Certificat de sélection du Québec [CSQ]).
The Province of Quebec will assess you, using its own rules.
The certificate shows that the Province of Quebec has accepted you as an immigrant.
If the Province of Quebec chooses you and gives you a CSQ, you must apply to Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada for permanent residence.
