Quebec Experience Program (PEQ) – What are the New Changes Added?
The immigration minister of Quebec has announced some of the new rules on November 6, 2019, for candidates applying for Quebec Experience Class.
Introduced earlier this week, the new rules have put a restriction on eligibility to workers and students whose work or study periods were exceeded. It is because a new list of occupations and education programs has been announced.
However, no change is applicable to program rules for workers and students who are settled in Quebec already. It is majorly because of reactions from workers, students, immigration lawyers and businesses in Quebec. In a radio interview on November 6 on 98.5 FM in Quebec, Simon Jolin-Barrette, immigration minister, Quebec, has announced the backlash.

What is the Quebec Experience Program (PEQ)?
The Programme de l’expérience québécoise (PEQ) or Quebec Experience Program has been formed to support foreign students and workers in Quebec who want to become a permanent resident in Quebec.
There are two steps involved under PEQ when immigrating to Quebec. First of all, applicants should be eligible for Certificat de selection du Quebec (CSQ) or Quebec Selection Certificate. It certifies that the candidate has been approved for permanent settlement by the Quebec Government. Then, the candidates can apply for Canadian permanent residence to the federal government, after achieving a Quebec Selection Certificate. This stage should simply check for possible security and medical issues.
Applicants are required to prove their French language skills in advanced-intermediate level or better in comprehension and oral. You may submit the following documents as proof of language proficiency –
Final transcript proving completion of up to 3 years of post-secondary or secondary study on a full-time basis,
Approved language test results, or
Regular license to practice Quebec professionally or attested document of fulfilling language requirements
