PNP Linked Draws

PNPs are offered by all provinces and territories in Canada. These are a great tool for the said provinces to manage job market shortages within the provinces and is also a great tool for a lot of foreign nationals who can almost guarantee their move to Canada if a PNP is offered to them. As the name suggests these programs are Nomination Programs and not Immigration Programs which means that the province can only nominate an individual to come & settle down in the province but the ultimate file processing and approval of Permanent Residence Status of an individual is still managed at the Federal Level. For Example: The Province of Manitoba nominates Mr. John Doe, an IT Professional, to settle down in Manitoba because the province foresees facing a shortage of IT professionals in the years to come. Mr. John Doe’s application still gets rejected at the Federal Level because of missing documents.

Foreign/Canadian Education Credentials, Past Work Experience & Language (English/French) Skills are amongst some of the key requirements for all PNPs but in addition to these the applicant must also have a genuine intent of settling down in the province that nominated him/her.
