This information is for applicants to the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). In addition to the immigration categories under the Federal and Quebec programs, Canada has entered into bilateral agreements with all of its provinces and territories to allow the provinces and territories to select immigrants in accordance with their specific needs. Each province and territory has its own immigration departments with the objective of attracting immigrants to fill their specific needs. The programs vary from province to province. Most of the provinces have very attractive skilled workers and business programs.

This program is for workers who:

•  have the skills, education and work experience to contribute to the economy of a specific province or territory
•  want to live in that province, and
•  want to become permanent residents of Canada
