Prince Edward Island PEI PNP.
Small island, deliberate selection.
The PEI PNP uses an Expression-of-Interest system with monthly draws. It favours candidates already working on the Island, those in occupations P.E.I. needs, and applicants who show a real intention to settle. P.E.I. also participates in the Atlantic Immigration Program.
