About the PEI PNP Express Entry Category
罢丑别听聽is an enhanced PNP, which means it is linked with the federal government鈥檚聽. In order to be considered for this stream, candidates need to have a profile in the system.
Express Entry is an immigration application manager. It handles the applications for three economic-class immigration programs:聽,听, and聽.
Eligible candidates get a聽聽(CRS) score for their age, work experience, education, and language proficiency in English or French.
Express Entry candidates who receive a provincial nomination are given an additional 600 points toward their CRS score and are effectively guaranteed an聽聽(ITA) for permanent residence in a subsequent Express Entry draw.
In order to be considered for a provincial nomination from PEI, Express Entry candidates need to create an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile with the PEI PNP.
EOI profiles are given points based on the province鈥檚 unique points grid. The highest-scoring candidates are then invited to apply through monthly draws.
Labour Impact Category
The Labour Impact Category is for foreign nationals who have a valid job offer in PEI, and have support from their employer. It is divided into three streams: ,听, and聽.
Candidates in this category must also submit an Expression of Interest in order to be considered for a provincial nomination through the Labour Impact Category.
Business Impact Category
Business Impact Category candidates need to meet the minimum provincial score requirement in order to proceed with their applications. The score is different in every draw. The invitations that the PEI PNP sent in today鈥檚 draw were issued under the聽, which is for foreign entrepreneurs who want to own and operate a business on the island.
