Practical order
- 1
Choose one current RCIP community and open its official local intake, priority-sector and employer instructions without treating availability as an eligibility verdict.
- 2
The employer verifies its designation with the selected community before the applicant relies on the offer.
- 3
Prepare written occupation, duties, wage, hours, location, duration and applicant facts consistent with the community and federal pilot instructions.
- 4
Prepare current language, education/ECA, work, passport, status, family, funds and community-intent records required by the live RCIP and local instructions.
- 5
Submit the exact local recommendation application through the community channel, pay only any official charge named there and retain the complete confirmation.
- 6
After a valid recommendation, open the current RCIP federal checklist, prepare recommendation, offer, candidate, civil, police and medical records and submit directly to IRCC.
It does not determine eligibility, predict a decision or submit anything for you.
