This moment, daunting yet pivotal, is precisely why clarity, decisiveness, and strategic preparation matter more than ever. With the PEQ reopening approaching, now is the time to act decisively.
The PEQ provides a streamlined immigration pathway specifically for students and skilled workers already integrated into Québec society. It allows eligible applicants to obtain a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ) rapidly, essential for permanent residency.
Québec suspended the PEQ to better align immigration with the province’s economic and social integration capabilities. This strategic pause ensures that new immigrants are suitably prepared to meet Québec's specific demands.
