Overview of Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP)
The Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP) facilitates immigration to Canada for individuals and families who meet the province’s specific criteria. It supports four key objectives:
- Boosting business and economic development
- Increasing the supply of skilled workers
- Enhancing population growth
- Meeting social and cultural objectives
The PEI PNP has three main streams:
- Prince Edward Island Express Entry
- Prince Edward Island Labour Impact
- Prince Edward Island Business Impact
Additionally, PEI welcomes immigrants through the Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP), a joint initiative with the federal government.
Prince Edward Island Immigration Streams
1. Prince Edward Island Express Entry Stream
This stream operates by selecting candidates from the federal Express Entry pool who are interested in moving to PEI. A nomination from PEI adds 600 points to a candidate’s Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, virtually guaranteeing an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence.
How to Apply for PEI Express Entry
- Assess Your Eligibility: Ensure you are registered in the federal Express Entry system and meet the requirements of one of the federal economic immigration programs:
- Federal Skilled Worker Program
- Federal Skilled Trades Program
- Canadian Experience Class
- Create a PEI Expression of Interest (EOI) Profile: Your profile is scored based on factors like age, language, education, and work experience.
- Receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA): Top-ranking candidates receive ITAs through monthly draws.
- Prepare and Submit Your Application: You have 60 days to complete and submit the application with a $300 fee.
- Apply for Permanent Residence: Once nominated, apply for permanent residence through Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
- Land in PEI: Upon approval, you must arrive in PEI and report to the Office of Immigration within 30 days.
