Official immigration application

To submit an official immigration application, you must fill out the Application for a Selection Certificate (Dynamic PDF, 708 Kb) and the Contract respecting financial self-sufficiency (PDF, 64 Kb) by following the instructions provided.

REMINDER

To avoid additional delays, do not forget to attach the following documents to your application:

  • all required forms (appendices, declarations, etc.) depending on your situation
  • all supporting documents required depending on your situation
  • payment of fees levied to process your file. Methods of payment may vary depending on the country.

    Send all of the above to the Bureau d'immigration du Québec à l'étranger (Québec immigration office abroad) serving your country.

    Processing times vary depending on the country, the number of applications and the staff available to process them.


  USEFUL INFORMATION  

Before making an official immigration application (Application for a Selection Certificate) which involves non-refundable processing fees, you must first evaluate online your chances of being selected by Québec. The response is immediate and free!

If you cannot download the forms, contact the Immigration-Québec office abroad for your country to obtain them. Do not forget to specify if your spouse or dependent children age 18 or over will be accompanying you as well as the occupation you plan to practise in Québec.

In the absence of payment of the required fees, your application will be returned without being processed. If some required documents are missing, you will have 60 days to send them in. This time limit is calculated from the date of the acknowledgement of receipt sent to you and indicating which documents are missing. If the office processing your application has not received all the documents within the set time limit, your application will be refused.

To find out more, refer to Understanding the selection process.
