Canada’s five provinces released their provincial nomination results between September 2-8 and issued invitations to qualified candidates.
The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is a strategy used by provincial governments to find and choose economic immigrants who are more likely to integrate successfully into the local labor market. Provinces have two main options for this selection process: they can either select candidates from the Express Entry pool or accept direct applications from people.
The collaborative approach to immigration that the federal government and many provinces share is the foundation of the PNP. Except for Quebec and Nunavut, which have their own independent immigration selection procedures and quotas, each province is given a set number of nominations under this system.
According to data and forecasts from IRCC, the PNP is anticipated to be crucial in bringing in about 105,550 new permanent residents by the year 2023. By luring people with skills and abilities that are in line with particular province needs and priorities, this program plays a crucial role in influencing the demographic and economic landscape of Canada.
