April 18, 2019
With more than 80 PNP immigration streams, keeping track of which Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP) are open can be quite difficult. This is why we offer you this summarized tables, that will inform you on the current status of all PNP streams.

Each province/territory has specific selection criteria for each one of its streams, in order to select the right candidates to apply for a nomination. Obtaining a provincial nomination will allow the nominated candidate to apply to the federal government and become a permanent resident of Canada. If a candidate is in the Express Entry pool, they will get an additional 600 points, which will automatically get them an invitation to apply to permanent residence in the next draw.

If you don't know which PNP stream you could be eligible to, use our PNP Eligibility tool !
