  3.  Selected individuals can submit a permanent selection application (official immigration application) and pay the associated fees.

          

 

How do invitations work?

The Ministère de l’Immigration, de la Francisation et de l’Intégration sends out the first invitations in Arrima through the Arrima platform to:

 

1. Persons who had submitted an application for a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ – Québec Selection Certificate) before August 2, 2018, and who:

  • were staying temporarily in Québec when they submitted their application, in accordance with Section 5.01 of the Regulation respecting the selection of foreign nationals, or

  • who were staying in Québec when the regulation came into force and who held a study or work permit.

 

2. Persons who hold a validated employment offer.

The results of the invitation exercises will be available on the Invitations section of the Ministry’s website.

These invitations allow selected persons to submit an application for permanent selection in order to obtain a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ - Québec Selection Certificate) within an average period of 6 months. These persons can then submit an application for permanent residence to the Government of Canada.
