PROVINCIAL NOMINEE PROGRAM

How the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) works

This program is for workers who:

have the skills, education and work experience to contribute to the economy of a specific province or territory
want to live in that province, and
want to become permanent residents of Canada

Each province and territory as its own “streams” (immigration programs that target certain groups) and requirements.

Understand the application options

How you will apply depends on which Provincial Nominee Program stream you’re applying to. You might need to apply using the paper-based process, or by the online process through Express Entry.

As part of the process, you will have to pass a medical exam and get a police check (certificate). Everyone must have these checks, no matter where they plan to live in Canada.

Paper-based process

Paper-based Process

In the paper-based process:

You apply to the province or territory for nomination under a non-Express Entry stream.
You need to meet the eligibility requirements of the province that nominates you.
Once you have been nominated, you submit a paper application for permanent residence to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
You have to pass a medical exam and get a police check (certificate). Everyone must have these checks, no matter where you plan to live in Canada.
Application processing times are longer than through Express Entry.

Express Entry Process

In the online Express Entry process, there are 2 ways to apply:

You contact the province or territory and apply for a nomination under an Express Entry stream.
If the province or territory agrees to nominate you, you create an Express Entry profile (or update your profile if you already have one) and show you have been nominated.

You create an Express Entry profile and show the provinces and territories you’re interested in.
If a province or territory sends you a “notification of interest” to your account, you contact them directly.
You apply to their Express Entry stream:

If you’re nominated, the province will offer it to you through your account, and you accept it electronically.

In both cases:

You must meet the eligibility requirements of the province or territory. And,
You must submit an Express Entry profile and show that you meet the minimum criteria for Express Entry, including being eligible for one of the immigration programs it covers.
If you are invited to apply, you submit an electronic application to IRCC.

Choose a province or territory

To be nominated by a province or territory, you must follow the instructions on their website and contact them directly:

I had a great experience with Maple Crest immigration inc. Out of all the consultancies that I have taken till date, Akshay sir’s consultancy was the best. He gave me all the answers of my questions very patiently. Very professional and kind. Even after, I called him and asked him many questions every times he picked up my phone on the first bell. I have never seen this kind of consultant. He also helped me to make an imp. Letter even he made it for me without charging any fee. So, I recommend him if u want to take better advice.Thank you so much, sir.

I had a wonderful experience working with Maple Crest Immigration (specifically Akshay) on my PR application. Pandemic delayed things alot but Akshay was always on top of his game, constantly being upto date with the latest developments on the Immigration related news and changes in policies.He kept me updated all the way along and always ensured that am informed about actual facts and don't fall prey to random discussions and speculations.Akshay is very meticulous about his approach towards his scope of work and doesn't mind going the extra mile to ensure that all the documentation processes are in order.He likes to leave less things to chance and is extremely transparent in his working.Really appreciate it!Thank you

I have high regard for Akshay and Maple Crest Immigration. He guided me with patience and was very responsive to all my queries. He’s very structured and systematic with his process. His document is impeccable. I’d recommend all interested friends and family to go with Maple Crest if they’re interested in any immigration services.
