The process of immigration to Québec is distinct from the selection standards used by the Government of Canada. Applications for immigration to Quebec are authorised using two distinct procedures, selection and admission. While admission takes place at the federal level, selection happens at the local level. A candidate must fulfil both the selection and admission criteria to immigrate to Quebec. A foreign national must acquire Quebec’s consent during the selection phase of the procedure.
A Quebec Selection certificate (CSQ) is a document given by the provincial immigration authorities following a successful application through one of Quebec’s immigration programs and serves as proof of selection.
Second, approved CSQ holders can apply to the federal government for permanent residency in Canada. The federal government is more concerned with health and criminality issues than with the applicant’s human capital, skills, and experience, which have already been approved by the Quebec government. Some applicants that are CSQ holders are already eligible to apply for work permits after CSQ is received & before applying to the federal government for PR status.

The new values test will be required for the initial stage of the process, which means that candidates must pass the values test before receiving their CSQ. Candidates will also be able to “participate in Québec to the entire course prescribed by the Minister pertaining specifically to those values.”
Candidates must score at least 75% to pass the exam. If a candidate fails the test, he or she can retake it or enrol in the Quebec values course.
