VV NagarPrince Edward Island
Canada’s smallest province Prince Edward Island is inviting immigrants from all over the world to become permanent residents of Canada by applying through Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program. This province is located on North America’s East coast and is a great place to study, work, and raise a family.
From the time of its introduction of the PNP in 2001 and the Atlantic Pilot Program in 2017, the province has welcomed thousands of immigrants yearly and continues to invite them. Through Prince Edward Island PNP, the prospective applicant with skills, qualifications, and experience may receive a nomination from the province as identified by skill shortages in the PEI labour market. Prince Edward Island Immigration has different streams for individuals interested in migrating to Prince Edward Island. It thus allows a potential candidate to contribute positively to the province’s economy.
Prince Edward Island Immigration Categories
1. Business Impact
The Prince Edward Island PNP business impact category is for an individual planning to invest in a business in PEI or actively managing a business in the province. This base category is further divided into three immigration streams:
- 100% Ownership (Closed)
- Partial Ownership (Closed)
- Work Permit stream
As of September 2018, PEI has closed two business impact streams -100% ownership and Partial Ownership. However, the province supports foreign nationals interested in operating a business in PEI who would like to apply for permanent residency through the PEI PNP Work permit stream. Interested individuals must get a work permit and operate a business in PEI for at least one year before receiving the nomination.
2. Labour Impact
Labour impact category is for individuals willing to work and live in Prince Edward Island. Thus, the applicants must possess relevant skills, education, and experience to contribute to the needs of the local labour market. This category is further divided into two streams:
- Skilled Worker Stream
- Critical Worker Stream
3. PEI Express Entry
Prince Edward Island, PNP Express entry is for applicants who are already in the Express Entry pool(or willing to apply through Express entry) and have an Expression of interest(EOI) for living in PEI. Unlike many other provincial nominee programs, applicants do not need a job offer from a Canadian employer when submitting their EOI. Candidates whose skills and experience match the province’s labour market needs will be eligible for Express Entry PNP.
