There are many types of immigration to Canada and PNP (Provincial Nominee Program) is one of those types. The Provincial Nominee Programs allow Canadian provinces and territories to nominate individuals who wish to immigrate to Canada and are interested in settling in those particular provinces and as a result of this nomination they will get extra points.
Applying to immigrate to Canada as a permanent resident under the provincial programs is a two-step process: applicants will receive a PNP nomination first, which can be used to apply for permanent residence through Express Entry.
How PNP works:
This program is for people who have:
Particular skills, education and work experience to contribute to the economy of a specific province or territory
Want to settle in that province, and
Want to become permanent residents of Canada
Each province and territory has its own stream and requirements eg; in a program stream, provinces and territories may target these people:
Students
Business people
Skilled workers
Semi-skilled workers
Please note each province has its own PNP charges as application fee, which covers the cost of processing your application and is non-refundable once you submit your application.
Everyone’s path to Canada is very unique based on variety of immigration categories. Please book a consultation, if you’re interested in applying for one of Provincial Nominee Programs.
