Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)

Overview of PNP

Through the PNP, provinces nominate candidates who have the skills, education, and work experience to contribute to their economy. Candidates may apply directly to a province or through the Express Entry-linked PNP stream.

This pathway provides a unique opportunity for applicants who may not qualify for federal programs but can secure Canadian PR by meeting a specific province’s requirements.
