British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and New
Brunswick invite PNP candidates

• Four Canadian provinces have invited candidates
  in the most recently published Provincial Nominee
  Program (PNP) draw results.
• The PNP is Canadas most prominent economic
  immigration pathway. According to the Immigration
  Levels Plan 2023-2025, Canada will welcome
  117,500 new permanent residents through the PNP
  each year by the end of 2025.
• The PNP can exist because, while Immigration
  Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has the
  final say on who becomes a permanent resident,
  immigration is a shared responsibility between
  the federal and provincial governments.

• By establishing a program that allows the
  provinces to select the skilled newcomers they
  feel have the best chance of becoming
  economically established, the province is also
  able to target gaps in the provincial labour
  force. This is seen by both governments as a
  beneficial tool to strengthen Canadas economy.
• Each year, the number of candidates a province
  can nominate changes. The overall target of PNP
  candidates for 2023 is 105,000. This number of
  available spots is then divided among the 11
  provinces and territories that have PNP programs
  (Quebec and Nunavut do not have PNPs).
• For example, in 2023, Ontario has been allocated
  16,500 nominations and Newfoundland and
  Labrador recently announced the province has an
  allocation of 3,050, which is double the 1,500 it
  had in 2022.

British Columbia

• On May 2, British Columbia invited more than 171
  candidates through the BC PNP. Candidates were
  invited through four separate draws, three of
  which were targeted, and one was general.
• In the general draw, candidates from the Skilled
  Worker and International Graduate
  Stream (including Express Entry candidates) were
  invited to apply if they had minimum cut-off
  scores of 104 (skilled workers) or 107
  (international graduates). Candidates in the
  Entry-Level and Semi-Skilled streams may also
  have been invited if they had a minimum score of
  85.

Saskatchewan

• Saskatchewan invited 1032 candidates in two
  separate draws on May 3. The majority, 739
  candidates, were invited through the Express
  Entry stream of the Saskatchewan Immigrant
  Nominee Program (SINP).
• The remaining 293 were invited through the
  Occupations-In-Demand stream. Candidates in both
  streams needed a minimum score of 68 and an
  Educational Credential Assessment (ECA).
• The province has held draws once a month
  throughout 2023.

New Brunswick

• New Brunswick has published PNP draw results for
  April. The province typically invites candidates
  throughout the month and then publishes all
  results at the same time.
• In April, 86 candidates were invited through
  the Express Entry stream of the NB PNP. Among
  them, 45 were in the NB Employment Connection, 27
  were in the NB Student Connection and the
  remaining 14 were from the NB Occupations in
  Demand Connection.

Manitoba

• On May 4, Manitoba issued 539 Letters of Advice
  to Apply under the Manitoba Provincial Nominee
  Program (MPNP). Draws took place for candidates
  in three streams.
• Under the Skilled Worker stream, 252 candidates
  with a score of at least 606 were invited in an
  Occupation-specific draw. Candidates with
  occupations in these (NOC) 2021 major groups were
  considered.
