Three provinces of Canada have disclosed their PNP result for the last week.
Almost every territory and province of Canada except Nunavut and Quebec conduct its own PNP. Those candidates who are interested in applying for the provincial nomination are able to apply through the Provincial nomination program – (PNP). Although the provincial nomination program – (PNP) escalates the chances of acquiring permanent resident status it is non-identical from permanent residence. For example, PNP Candidates with an Express Entry profile can get 600 awarded points which are added to their CRS score and they will become qualified to be invited to apply for the PNP invitation round.
The PNP was introduced in 1998 by the government of Canada and migrated 400 people through this program. Now it becomes a primary choice of most immigrants and more than 80,000 immigrants move to Canada every year. The federal and provincial governments of Canada consider it a strong tool to develop the economy Canada that’s why the number of PNP nominations has increased in Canada.
For the past few months, the Express Entry draw has been focused on the candidates of the PNP. However, Express Entry draws for the CEC, FSWP, and FSTP candidates started again from the last week of July. The first draw of all programs is conducted on the 6th July of 2020. There are 1500 candidates of Express Entry invited with at least 557 CRS and get invited to apply for the PR status in Canada.
