Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) – Immigrate to Canada Through Provinces
Canada's provinces and territories play a major role in immigration by selecting newcomers who meet their labour market and economic needs. The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows provinces to nominate skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and graduates for Permanent Residency (PR). At Sober Immigration, we help applicants choose the right PNP stream, prepare complete applications, and maximize their chances of being nominated for Canadian immigration.
What is the Provincial Nominee Program?
The PNP is designed for individuals who have the skills, education, and work experience to contribute to a province or territory's economy, want to live and settle in a specific province, and may not have a high enough CRS score for Express Entry but can qualify through provincial nomination. A provincial nomination adds 600 CRS points to your Express Entry profile, virtually guaranteeing an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for PR.
