Immigrate to Canada
through Provincial Nominee Program

Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) – Your Pathway to Canadian Permanent Residency

What is the PNP in Canada?

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate individuals who wish to immigrate and settle in a specific province. It supports Canada’s economic needs by attracting skilled workers, graduates, and entrepreneurs.

  • Step 1

    Research which province suits your profession, background, or goals. 🔹 Select a stream—like Skilled Worker, International Graduate, or Entrepreneur. 🔹 Some streams require a job offer, others focus on in-demand occupations.👉 Example: Ontario may suit IT professionals, while Saskatchewan targets tradespeople and agriculture workers.

  • Step 2

    Once you've selected the right stream, you’ll submit an application directly to that province or territory. 1. Ensure all documents are organized and meet provincial requirements.
    2. You may be asked for proof of work experience, education, language tests, or settlement funds.
    3. Some provinces use an Expression of Interest (EOI) system where you’ll wait to be invited to apply. Why it matters: A complete, well-prepared application increases your chances of nomination and reduces delays.

  • Step 3

    If your application is approved, the province will issue you a Nomination Certificate. This is the golden ticket to the next step!
    🔹 If you applied under Express Entry, you’ll receive 600 additional CRS points — virtually guaranteeing an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for PR.
    🔹 If paper-based, you can now apply for PR through IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada).

  • Step 4

    This is the final step! With your nomination in hand, you submit your permanent residence application to IRCC.
    🔹 Express Entry applicants will receive an ITA and can apply online.
    🔹 Non-Express Entry applicants submit a paper-based PR application.
    🔹 Processing times vary, but most PNP PR applications are processed within 6–18 months.
    Tip: This step involves medical, background, and security checks. We help ensure everything is in order to avoid delays.
