How The Application Process Works
How you apply will depend on the PNP stream you’re applying to. You may need to apply via a paper-based process or through the Express Entry System. You’ll also need to pass a medical exam and obtain a police check no matter the Canadian province you seek permanent residence for.
You’ll apply for a nomination first, and if you have met all the necessary criteria, you’ll be nominated to apply for Canadian permanent residence which you’ll then submit your application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
If you’re applying through Express Entry, you’ll need to contact whichever provincial government you’re going to apply for and let them know you want to apply to be nominated under an Express Entry stream. If they agree, you’ll complete your Express Entry profile. Or, you can show the specific province your Express Entry profile first, and they may send you a “notification of interest”. Just note that processing times for the Express Entry process can often take longer.
Streams Target Specific Groups
The streams under each Provincial Nominee Program look to target and nominate candidates that meet the specific requirements they’re looking for or what their labour market needs, for example:
Express Entry Candidates Will Receive An Invitation To Apply (ITA)
If you’re applying for the Provincial Nominee Program under the Express Entry system, there are three main immigration programs under this opportunity, one of which will suit your specific case the most: the Federal Skilled Worker Program, the Federal Skilled Trades Program, and the Canadian Experience Class. A Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) is used to assess your profile based on your age, education, language abilities, work experience, and valid job offers. The higher your score, the higher your chances of receiving an ITA or being sent a notification of interest as a provincial nominee. In the meantime, your profile will be placed in a pool. The next step is left to the Canadian government where they’ll hold Express Entry draws randomly throughout the year and search for successful candidates.
