Ontario & British Columbia invite applicants in the latest draws. Immigration is a shared responsibility between Canada’s provincial/ territorial and federal governments. Through the Provincial Nominee Program, IRCC allocates each province and territory, except Quebec and Nunavut, a specific number of nominations that might be used to select the economic immigrants who are best suited to the local labor force and economy.
Being nominated by a province is not the same as becoming a permanent resident. However, applicants who apply for provincial nomination and are successful will have a strong application if they apply to IRCC for permanent resident status.
