Applying for permanent residence

Programme de l’expérience québécoise (Québec Experience Program) – Graduate and Worker Streams

On June 10, the government announced the reopening of the Québec Experience Program (PEQ) (in French only).

We understand that this announcement may raise a number of questions and that these procedures are important to you.

However, we would like to inform you that we are unable to provide advice, support, or appointments related to the PEQ.

For any questions regarding eligibility requirements, application procedures, or the program itself, we invite you to contact the Ministère de l’Immigration, de la Francisation et de l’Intégration (MIFI) directly:

If you require official documents from our institution for your application, please email [email protected] and include "PEQ" in the subject line. Please allow five business days for processing. Please also note that our offices are closed on Fridays until August 21.
