Provincial Nominees Invited

In the 147th Express Entry draw, the IRCC limited the draw to invite only candidates who have already received a nomination through a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP).

This draw saw 529 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) issued to PNP candidates with a CRS score of 718 points or higher.

Each province, with the exception of Quebec, operates several PNP streams. These streams are designed by the provinces to help meet their unique immigration goals, so the eligibility criteria and application procedures vary. However, PNPs are a popular option because they can be the fastest pathway to Canadian permanent residence.

In spite of the continued uncertainty surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, we are glad to see that the Canadian government is still holding Express Entry draws. Immigration plays an important role in Canada, and we hope to see these numbers continue to climb in the coming months.
