PEI PNP Program

The Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP) is designed for international individuals looking to contribute positively to the province of Prince Edward Island through immigration to Canada.

The PEI PNP comprises three main immigration pathways, each with its own subcategories. Within the third Express Entry pathway, PEI PNP provides a fast-track option for candidates to obtain a Canada PR Visa, often in just six months.

Prospective applicants interested in Canadian immigration through PEI PNP have two ways to obtain the Nomination Certificate. The first method involves applying directly to PEI PNP outside the Express Entry Program through the Office of Immigration of Prince Edward Island. If accepted, candidates can then create an Express Entry profile and include the Provincial Nomination Certificate.

The second method for securing a nomination from PEI PNP is to first create a profile in the Federal Express Entry pool. Candidates can then express their interest in immigrating to PEI within the Express Entry system. PEI PNP may reach out to them directly through Express Entry, offering an invitation to apply for PNP. This method is advisable as it allows the inclusion of your Profile ID in Express Entry during the submission of an Expression of Interest (EOI) to PEI PNP.

With an existing Express Entry profile, successful candidates through PEI PNP can instantly receive the Nomination Certificate from the province. This significantly boosts their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score by an extra 600 points, virtually guaranteeing an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for a Canada PR Visa in the next Express Entry draw.

The Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program offers three major immigration pathways:

• Business Impact Pathway
• Labor Impact Pathway
• Express Entry Pathway

These pathways provide various opportunities for prospective immigrants to Prince Edward Island.
