About The Pei Pnp Express Entry Category
The Express Entry Category of the PEI PNP is an improved PNP, meaning it is linked to the federal government’s Express Entry system. Candidates must have a profile in the system to be considered for this stream.
Express Entry is a program that manages immigration applications. It processes applications for the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program, and Canadian Experience Class, which are all economic-class immigration programs. Eligible candidates are given a CRS score based on their age, work experience, education, and English or French language proficiency.
Express Entry candidates who are nominated by a province gain an extra 600 points on their CRS score and are practically assured an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence in the next Express Entry draw.
Express Entry candidates must create an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile with the PEI PNP in order to be eligible for a provincial nomination. The province’s unique points grid is used to assign points to EOI profiles. The candidates with the best scores are then asked to apply in monthly draws.
Labour Impact Category
Foreign nationals who have a legitimate work offer in P.E.I. and are supported by their employer are eligible for the Labor Impact Category. Skilled Worker, Critical Worker, and International Graduate are the three streams. In order to be considered for a provincial nomination under the Labor Impact Category, candidates in this category must also submit an Expression of Interest.
Business Impact Category
In PEI’s First PNP Draw Of 2022, candidates in the Business Impact Category must meet the provincial minimum score requirement in order to keep with their applications. Every draw has a different score. The PEI PNP issued invitations for today’s draw under the Work Permit Stream, which is for foreign entrepreneurs who seek to own and operate a business in the province.
