Can someone assist me on a few queries regarding SNIP OID:
1. I have seen different opinions on which type of funds can be used for POF. For SINP OID category, the link in Saskatchewan pagebelow mentions Stocks can be an accepted POF, but I do not see Stocks as an option in the drop down box in Oasis under Fund Settlement (Step 3), how can I go about choosing this?
2. I have a working period (full time 40 hours per week) between 28 Jan 2013 to 05 Oct 2015, which falls into the 6th-10th year period. Can this period be counted as 2 years for 2 points, or 1 year but zero points?
3. For Form IMM0008_4e : Schedule 4 Economic Classes - Provincial Nominees (Section 3)? It asks for "Which provincial government has nominated you?" and the stream. If I currently do not have any nomination, do I put N.A. or put Saskatchewan?
Thanks for your response.
Regarding 2nd point, can you confirm again it would be 4 points? As I read that only more recent work experience within 1st-5th years gets 2 points each, while 6th-10th years only gets 1 point each. However points are only given from 2 years onwards within the 6th-10th years period.
In my case, I did not exactly reach two calendar years although it is more than one year (28 Jan 2013 to 05 Oct 2015). I'm worried how SINP will award, zero or two points?

SINP website just updated today and made a statement as follows:
"The Application Intake Thresholds for the Saskatchewan Express Entry sub-category and the Occupations In-Demand sub-category will not be reopened to new applications on January 1, 2017. Please check the website for future updates to the application intake thresholds for these sub-categories."
You can find it on: https://www.saskatchewan.ca/residents/moving-to-saskatchewan/immigrating-to-saskatchewan/saskatchewan-immigrant-nominee-program/maximum-number-of-sinp-applications
So, whoever waiting the intake to open in Jan 2017 should wait little extra.
