Provincial Nominee Program
For workers seeking to contribute to a specific province or territory.
The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is for workers who have the skills, education, and experience needed to contribute to the economy of a specific province or territory, who want to live in that province or territory, and who want to become permanent residents of Canada.
Each province and territory has its own 'streams' (immigration programs targeting specific groups) and criteria. For example, under a given stream, provinces and territories may target students, business people, skilled workers, or semi-skilled workers.
