The Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) of Canada offers a relatively easy pathway to apply for and acquire a Canadian Permanent Residency (PR) visa. The PNPs invite, assess, and nominate the applicants for Canadian PR visas even if they have a relatively low immigration point score or Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score in the federal Express Entry System.

 

Some popular PNPs to apply for Canadian PR visa are as follows:

 

  • Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program
  • Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program
  • Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP)
  • Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program
  • Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP), etc.

If you are applying for Canada PR for the first time, it is wise to prepare your immigration file under the guidance of a genuine and trusted Immigration Advisor and Consultant.
