British Columbia and Manitoba have invited candidates in Canada鈥檚 latest (PNP) draws.
Provincial Nominee Programs are immigration programs run by each of Canada鈥檚 provinces and territories (except and Nunavut). They are able to exist because immigration is a shared responsibility between the federal government and provincial governments.
Every year, (IRCC) creates an that determines the number of permanent residents who will be admitted to Canada in the coming year and sets nominal targets for the following two years. Through the plan, IRCC also decides how many permanent residents will be admitted to Canada through any given program. For example, in 2024, IRCC will welcome 110,000 new permanent residents through the PNP.
To help meet this target, IRCC gives each participating province an allocation of nominations. The provincial governments then select the economic immigration candidates who are deemed most likely to have a positive impact on the local economy and close urgent gaps in the provincial labour force.
