Canada Provincial Nominee Program
Provincial Nominee Programs offer a feasible pathway for many potential immigrants, especially those who do not have an Express Entry and those who have Comprehensive Ranking System(CRS) scores too low to qualify for the Express Entry selection, to apply for Canada PR. The Express Entry candidates who receive a provincial nomination have 600 additional CRS score points added to their total score and that guarantee them an invitation to apply for permanent residence in Canada. At the same time, the Provincial Nominee Programs allow provinces to select candidates who meet their labour market needs and nominate them for permanent residence in Canada. The country is planning to welcome 80800 new permanent residents through Provincial Nominee Programs in 2021.
