Every jurisdiction

Choose your province.

Eleven provinces and territories run a Provincial Nominee Program. Quebec selects its own immigrants; Nunavut has none. Each links to a full, up-to-date guide.

The flow

How a PNP works.

1

Match a stream

Pick the province and stream that fit your occupation, experience, language and ties — some need a job offer.

2

Get selected

Register an Expression of Interest or secure an employer offer; the province invites and issues a nomination.

3

+600 or base

An enhanced nomination adds 600 CRS in Express Entry; a base nomination uses the paper-based PR process.

4

Apply to IRCC

Submit your permanent-residence application. IRCC makes the final decision on admissibility and PR.

A nomination = +600 CRS

Through an enhanced, Express-Entry-aligned stream, a provincial nomination adds 600 points to your Comprehensive Ranking System score — in practice, a guaranteed invitation to apply.
