Provincial Nominee Program

Applying as a provincial nominee through Express Entry under PNP Canada is a promising way to obtain permanent residency and work legally in Canada. To get a nomination, one must first be selected by the province or territory from the pool of candidates who have already created their Express Entry profile. Being nominated means that the province or territory is satisfied with your skills, education, and work experience, which match the labor market needs and help them meet their objectives in creating an economically sustainable future.

If one receives a provincial nomination, one must accept it within 30 days. Once nominated by the province or territory, they would receive 600 additional Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points, which will help the applicant obtain an invitation to apply (ITA) in the following Express Entry draw. The candidate can apply for permanent residence through Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) under the Provincial Nominee Program Canada pathway.
