Easing a Direct Route to Canadian Immigration
At Mabel Immigration Services, we specialize in assisting individuals who wish to immigrate to Canada through the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). This program allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate individuals for permanent residence based on their skills, work experience, and ability to contribute to the local economy. Whether you're looking to settle in British Columbia, Ontario, or another province, we provide expert guidance to help you navigate the process with ease and efficiency.
Unlike Express Entry, which is a federal immigration system, PNP allows provinces and territories to select applicants who meet their specific local labor market needs. While Express Entry is based on a point system and offers faster processing times, PNP nominations increase your chances of receiving an invitation to apply for permanent residency, even if your CRS (Comprehensive Ranking System) score is lower.
What is PNP?
The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is designed for individuals who want to live and work in a specific province or territory in Canada. Under this program, each province and territory has its own set of immigration streams targeting specific needs. If you receive a provincial nomination, you can apply for permanent residency through either a Express Entry stream or a non-Express Entry stream.
How Does PNP Work?
The PNP process generally follows these key steps:
- Select a Province or Territory:Choose the province or territory where you would like to settle. Each region has its own streams targeting specific skills, education levels, and work experience.
- Check Eligibility:Review the eligibility requirements for the specific PNP streams offered by the province or territory. This could include having a job offer, work experience in demand, or meeting certain educational qualifications.
- Apply for Nomination:If eligible, you can apply to the province or territory for a nomination. If you receive a nomination, it supports your application for permanent residency through IRCC.
- Apply for Permanent Residence:Once nominated, you can apply for permanent residency through Express Entry (if eligible) or the paper-based process. You will need to provide the required documents and pay the necessary fees.
Key Benefits of the Provincial Nominee Program

The PNP can offer faster processing times compared to other immigration pathways, as provinces have their own streams with quicker timelines.
Tailored for Specific Skills -
Many PNP streams are designed to address skill shortages in specific provinces, making it easier for workers in demand to immigrate.
Enhanced Opportunities for Permanent Residency -
A provincial nomination can significantly boost your chances of being invited to apply for permanent residency, especially under the Express Entry system.
