Program Overview

What Is the Canada Provincial Nominee Program?

PNP allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate candidates for permanent residence based on labour needs and economic priorities. Each province implements specific streams and selection criteria to address work shortages and provide opportunities for applicants to be granted Canadian Permanent Residency.

It has been ranked as one of the most sought-after immigration programs in Canada because it gives candidates a chance to be considered for immigration when they aren't offered the chance to immigrate on their own through other federal immigration programs. A provincial nomination can help make your application more competitive.
