Canada PNP
Canada is a favorite destination for individuals wanting to migrate to another country. The immigration friendly policies of the country and the many job opportunities here are encouraging migrants to come and settle here.
Many migrants opt for a PR visa when they wish to settle in Canada. One of the options to migrate to Canada is a Permanent Resident (PR) visa. This visa is valid for five years and can be renewed.
The PR visa offers social security, free education and health care among other benefits.
Canada offers various immigration programs through which you can apply for a PR visa. A popular option is the Canadian Provincial Nominee Program or the PNP.

Canada offers nearly 80 different PNP programs, some of the popular PNP programs include:
1.Alberta PNP
2.Manitoba PNP
3.New Brunswick PNP
4.British Columbia PNP
5.Nova Scotia PNP
6.Ontario PNP
7.Saskatchewan PNP

The government is expected to increase the approval of new permanent resident visas through the PNP program for 2020 and 2021.

Canada immigration programs including the PNP works on a points-based system. An applicant must score a minimum number of points to be able to apply for a PR visa. Here are the various criteria under which you can score points to meet the eligibility requirement:
- Age
- Education
- Work experience
- Language ability
- Adaptability
- Arranged employment
Application for a PR visa through the PNP program requires the applicants have some connection to the province. You can be either working in that province or have studied there. You can be eligible if you have a job offer from an employer in the province.
If you opt for the PNP to apply for your PR visa, these are the steps:
- You must apply in the province or region where you desire to settle.
- You could be nominated by the province to apply for a PR visa if your profile meets the eligibility criteria.
- You can apply for your PR visa after you are nominated by a province.
The criteria for evaluating the PR application can differ for each province.
The PNP is an option you can choose if your CRS points score is not high enough and you still get your provincial nomination. When making your PNP application you can choose a province from where it will be easy to get a nomination based on your profile.
If you are applying under such a PNP, you can add 600 CRS points to your Express Entry application. This increases your possibility of getting an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for your PR visa in the subsequent invitation round. Those wishing to apply for such PNP programs must first create an Express Entry profile.
