Provincial Nominee Program

OVERVIEW OF PNP

Provincial Nominee Program

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is a Canadian immigration program that allows provinces and territories to nominate eligible candidates who can contribute to their local economies. The program is designed to fill labour market shortages and meet specific economic needs of provinces and territories.

Eligibility requirements and application processes vary depending on the province or territory, but typically involve having a job offer, meeting language requirements, and having the necessary skills, education, and work experience.
