The Provincial Nominee Program

As the needs of each Province in Canada is unique, they have been allowed by the Federal Government to nominate candidates for immigration. This nomination certificate is then passed on  to the Immigration department who then processes their application on a fast track. As the burden of proof of establishing themselves in Canada is undertaken by the Province, Immigration then becomes a formal process.

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows participating provinces and territories to nominate a certain number of foreign nationals each year. It enables participating provinces and territories to select immigrants who have specific skills that contribute to that province/territory's economic and social development.

Provincial nominees (selected foreign nationals) are not assessed under the federal skilled worker selection factors. However, the Immigration Department still conducts security and medical screening.
