Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
In this overview, we will provide insights into the outcomes of the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) draws across Canada during the third week of November 2023.
Provincial Nominee Programs allow Canadian provinces to establish their specific criteria for various immigration pathways. With the exception of Quebec and Nunavut, each province in Canada operates distinct nominee programs tailored to their unique needs. These programs often target international graduates, entrepreneurs, and individuals with sought-after professional experiences. The selection criteria can vary depending on factors such as labor market demands and demographic gaps within the province.
Immigration through Provincial Nominee Programs contributes significantly to Canada’s overall economic immigration numbers. In 2022, out of a quarter of a million economic immigrants targeted, approximately 83,500 spots were reserved for applicants applying through the Provincial Nominee Program.
Numerous Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) conduct draws where they invite candidates to apply for Canadian permanent residence nomination. Some PNPs require candidates to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile to be eligible for these draws. In contrast, certain programs directly invite candidates from the Express Entry pool, even if they haven’t formally applied for consideration.
The British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP), cover different immigration pathways enabling foreign nationals to become Canadian Permanent Residents in BC. The PNP is strategically designed to attract immigrants to work in industries that will benefit the province, with different profiles like: skilled workers, workers in sectors with labour shortages, entrepreneurs, and investors. The province operates several immigration streams divided into two categories:
British Columbia held one PNP draw, for the Skills Immigration stream on November 22:
