Provincial Nomination Program
PNP is short for the Provincial Nominee Program, which allows people to migrate to a particular province or territory of Canada.
In order to migrate to a particular province or territory of Canada, apply only in that place. Before applying, make sure you have the skills, work experience, and educational qualifications needed for the job vacancies in that province or territory.
Provincial Nomination Program
All Canadian Provinces have their unique immigration programs that can either support a Federal Immigration application via ‘Express Entry’ or through a stand-alone PNP application. The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) gives provinces and territories an active role in immigrant selection as it authorizes them to nominate for permanent residence individuals who will meet specific local labour market needs.
The provinces have various streams in their PNPs, but they tend to fall into following clusters:
- Skilled workers
- Semi-skilled workers
- Business/Investors
- International Graduates
- Family/community connections
