Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) Guide

A comprehensive guide to getting nominated by a Canadian province.

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate individuals who want to settle in their region. A nomination adds 600 CRS points under Express Entry, virtually guaranteeing an invitation.

Each province has different streams tailored to local labor market needs. This guide helps you understand which province and stream might be right for you.

How PNP Works

There are two main types of PNP:

Enhanced PNP (linked to Express Entry) — adds 600 CRS points to your profile
Base PNP (paper-based) — a separate application process outside Express Entry
Most provinces have multiple streams targeting different worker categories
Some streams require a job offer, others don't

Popular Provincial Streams

Key options include:

Ontario (OINP) — Human Capital Priorities, Tech Draw, French-Speaking Skilled Worker
British Columbia (BC PNP) — Tech, Healthcare, and Skilled Worker streams
Alberta (AINP) — Alberta Express Entry, Alberta Opportunity Stream
Saskatchewan (SINP) — International Skilled Worker, Occupation In-Demand
Manitoba (MPNP) — Skilled Worker Overseas, Skilled Worker in Manitoba
Atlantic Immigration Program — employer-driven, fast processing
