Importance of PNP streams

PNP draws play a key role in Canada’s immigration and influences policy-making for immigration considerably. In the period between 2021 and 2023, about 250,000 people are expected to get permanent residence in Canada.

The Canadian government has taken steps to increase annual PNP allocations for each province. Under Canada PNP, every province/territory in Canada is allowed to nominate individuals and families ready to settle in them. The criteria for eligibility to apply for immigration are decided by the respective province/territory, though the final decision on immigration is made at the federal level by the IRCC.

An essential part of eligibility to apply for a provincial nomination under PNP includes the applicant’s willingness to live and work in a particular province/territory. The applicant must also possess skills and abilities that will enable them to contribute to the growth of the local economy as well as society.
