Provincial Nominee Programs
Nova Scotia
The Nova Scotia PNP is an immigration program that allows Nova Scotia to nominate a set number of eligible foreign workers and entrepreneurs for Canadian permanent residence, to meet the province’s unique labour and economic needs.
Businesses need to operate in Nova Scotia and offer full-time, permanent jobs to potential nominees. The offered positions should meet the province’s economic and labour market needs. The requirements may vary for different Nova Scotia PNP streams.
After extending a qualifying job offer, the employer works with the prospective employee to apply to the appropriate Nova Scotia PNP stream. If the application is approved, the worker receives a provincial nomination and can then apply to the federal government for permanent residence. The process and timeline can vary based on the specific PNP stream and federal processing times.
Ontario
The Ontario PNP, also known as the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP), allows Ontario to nominate foreign workers and entrepreneurs for Canadian permanent residence.
Businesses in Ontario can participate by offering permanent and full-time job offers in eligible occupations. The job offer should meet prevailing wage levels. The specific requirements can vary depending on the stream of the OINP being utilized.
Once a qualifying job offer has been extended, employers assist the foreign worker in applying for the relevant OINP stream. If the application is successful, the worker receives a provincial nomination and can then apply for permanent residence at the federal level. The process and timeline can vary based on the specific OINP stream and federal processing times.
