The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows provinces and territories to nominate skilled workers for permanent residence based on regional labor market needs. Applicants must receive a nomination, meet eligibility criteria for a specific province's program, and qualify under Express Entry. Nominees are assessed on factors like skills, work experience, and language ability. Once nominated, candidates can apply for permanent residence via the Express Entry system, benefiting from higher Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) scores. More details here.
