Provincial nominees are selected based on their ability to contribute to the province\u2019s economic development. Usually, but not always, a genuine Canadian job offer from an employer within the province is a requirement under the Provincial Nomination Program.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Most provinces in Canada participate in the Provincial Nomination Program. Participating provinces sign agreements with Immigration, Refugee and\u00a0 Citizenship Canada (IRCC) that allow the provinces to directly select immigrants who meet the requirements they have established. People who wish to apply as a Provincial Nominee must first apply to the province where they wish to settle:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The requirements and procedures for the Provincial Nominee Programs differ from Province to Province.<\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1623189363645{background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]<div class=\"shortcode-wrapper shortcode-icon-column clearfix\"><div class=\"feature-box standard-icon-box alignleft\"><div class=\"feature-box-content\"><h4 class=\"bold\"><i class=\"hb-moon-point-right title-icon\"><\/i>Provincial Nominee through Express Entry<\/h4>Each PNP has at least one immigration stream that is aligned with the federal\u00a0Express Entry\u00a0immigration selection system.\u00a0Provincial nominations issued under these Express Entry-aligned streams\u00a0are known as\u00a0&#8216;enhanced nominations&#8217;. The benefits of enhanced PNP streams are that they\u00a0award Express Entry candidates an additional 600\u00a0Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS)\u00a0points, which essentially guarantee they will receive a permanent residence invitation under Express Entry. Another major benefit is they can have their permanent residence application processed by the federal government\u00a0quicker, typically within six months. The other way to obtain permanent residence through the PNP is under a &#8216;base&#8217; stream. Here, you apply to a PNP stream directly and once you obtain a provincial nomination, the federal government will process your permanent residence application.<\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1623189543378{background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]<div class=\"shortcode-wrapper shortcode-icon-column clearfix\"><div class=\"feature-box standard-icon-box alignleft\"><div class=\"feature-box-content\"><h4 class=\"bold\"><i class=\"icon-hand-right title-icon\"><\/i>Requirements and procedures for the Provincial Nominee Programs<\/h4><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertacanada.com\/immigration\/immigrate\/ainp.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alberta<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.welcomebc.ca\/immigrate-to-b-c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">British Columbia<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.immigratemanitoba.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Manitoba<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www2.gnb.ca\/content\/gnb\/en\/corporate\/promo\/immigration\/immigrating-to-nb\/nb-immigration-program-streams.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New Brunswick<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nlpnp.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\nNewfoundland and Labrador\u00a0<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.novascotiaimmigration.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nova Scotia\u00a0<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ontario.ca\/page\/ontario-immigrant-nominee-program-oinp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ontario<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.princeedwardisland.ca\/en\/information\/office-of-immigration\/provincial-nominee-program\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prince Edward Island<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saskatchewan.ca\/residents\/moving-to-saskatchewan\/live-in-saskatchewan\/by-immigrating\/saskatchewan-immigrant-nominee-program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Saskatchewan<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/yukon.ca\/en\/immigrate-yukon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yukon<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After applicants have been nominated by a province, they have to make a separate application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) for permanent residence.
