If the supporting household has previously supported a family member they must show that the applicant has economically established in Saskatchewan. If that person has not yet established themselves, they may not be able to be a supporting household.

Applying for a provincial nomination can be a long and arduous process especially with respect to processing times. You will want to make sure that the application you submit has the best possible chance for success so as to not have your application further delayed due to an unsatisfied officer.
