Canada PNP – welcome to Globalvisanet

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP Canada) is an immigration system and a means to meet Canada’s new and urgent immigration needs. The Canada PNP program or the Canada Provincial Nominee Program is a great option for all immigrants who wish to obtain a Canada PR visa (permanent residence). In the Provincial Nominee Programs, applications can be made for those immigration programs from different provinces of Canada that work in agreement with the federal government. These provinces and territories sign mutual agreements with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) that allow these provinces under PNP to select immigrants who meet the required criteria established by the provinces for the immigration of the candidate. The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate specific individuals who intend to immigrate to Canada and wish to settle in a specific province of Canada. There are 80 immigration PNP streams in Canada.

Different PNP programs are available in the following provinces:

Before even applying to get immigrated to Canada, an immigrant strictly needs to get a Provincial Nomination Certificate by the province.
After appropriately accomplishing nomination by a province, an individual application is required to be sent to Citizenship and Immigration Canada for that person’s Canada Immigration permanent residential Visa.

The processing speed of PNP differs from a Canadian immigration visa’s office to the other one. Know More about the types family visa for immigrants.
The Quebec’s province doesn’t take part in the PNP. Instead, the Governments of Quebec and Canada have entered into numerous agreements by which Quebec province has set up its selection conditions for all categories of immigrants who have an intention to reside and permanently settle in Quebec.
Therefore, finally, it can be concluded that through the PCP program, immigration facilities can be provided at a rapid pace in all provinces and territories of Canada.

How the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) works?

Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP) are primarily aimed at individuals who:

Have the skills, education and work experience to contribute to the economy of a specific province or territory;
Intend to settle permanently in that province or territory; and
Want to become permanent residents of Canada.

Each province and territory has its own PNP streams (immigration programs that target certain groups such as new graduates, business people, skilled workers in specific professions, or semi-skilled workers) and unique requirements. There are more than 80 PNP immigration streams.
