The most recent PEI PNP draw came out on 20th April, 2023. This time the province is calling for workers who applied in its Labor and Express Entry Streams, and Entrepreneur Stream. The province sent 189 invitations in total to those who held a business permit in the entrepreneur stream and those in the labor & Express Entry category. Prince Edward Island is also inviting those who applied in its Labor & Express Entry category. Before Prince Edward Island’s provincial nominee program draws, we saw that Saskatchewan draws were also conducted. In that, a total of 1,067 invitations were sent out.
Prince Edward Island draws of 20th April
The draws conducted on 20th April, 2023 evidently invited a lot of people. These people must have applied in either the entrepreneur stream for a work permit of the province or in the labor and Express Entry stream. This is the first draw in the month of April and let’s see if Prince Edward Island will conduct another draw in the same month again or not.
Anyways, about 9 invitations are sent out in the Business work permit Entrepreneurs stream. In order to apply in this stream, you must have a minimum CRS score of 72. In case your point is 71, then we suggest better luck next time! You can wait for next month’s draw and see what the minimum score requirement is at that time.
About the labor & Express Entry Stream, a total of 180 invitations are issued to candidates.
From the number of invitations difference in both the streams, it would be safe to say that the province is in greater need of laborers than entrepreneurs. Since May 20th, 2022, the province has been focusing mostly on inviting the laborers from all over the world. Even the data proves it. Take a look at the image taken from the official website of Prince Edward Island below.
Do you see that a total of 2,145 invitations are sent to those applying in the labor stream alone? While the entrepreneurs have received only about 114 invitations since then.
