Understanding the Provincial Nominee Program:
The Provincial Nominee Program offers a fantastic opportunity for candidates to obtain Canadian Permanent Residence. Each Canadian province and territory, excluding Nunavut and Quebec, has its own nomination program. These programs allow provinces to nominate individuals who are eager to settle in a particular province. By participating in a Provincial Nomination Program, candidates gain a competitive advantage in the immigration process.
Enhanced Nominations:
Enhanced Nominations are provincial nominations issued under the Express Entry-aligned streams. These nominations grant Express Entry candidates an additional 600 Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points, significantly boosting their ranking within the Express Entry pool. The additional CRS points increase the likelihood of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence. For the most up-to-date information on Enhanced Nominations, please visit the websites of the respective Provincial Nomination Programs.
