YNP · Yukon

Yukon PNP.

The North, through your employer.

The Yukon Nominee Program is employer-driven: a Yukon employer nominates a worker they can’t fill locally. It suits people who already have (or can secure) a genuine Yukon job offer, with an Express-Entry-aligned option for eligible skilled workers.

How does the YNP connect to Express Entry?
If you're nominated through the Express Entry stream, an Express-Entry-aligned stream, you receive 600 additional CRS points, which effectively guarantees an invitation to apply in a following Express Entry round.

Employer-driven. Employer-driven — a Yukon job offer is required; there is no open points pool.
