Manitoba
Manitoba held their Expression of Interest draws on May 7 and May 21. The province offered 222 invites to candidates from the International Education, Skilled Workers Overseas, and Skilled Workers in Manitoba categories.
Nova Scotia
Nova Scotia held their PNP draw for nurses on May 22. These workers can now apply for permanent residence through Nova Scotia’s Labour Market Priorities Stream. All candidates who got an invite should create a profile in the Federal Express Entry pool.
Additionally, each of the registered psychiatric nurses should have at least three years of work experience. Even though Nova Scotia did not release its numbers, each one of the candidates were compliant with Canada’s National Occupational Classification index (NOC 3012)
Ontario
The OINP (Ontario Immigration Nominee Program) was also active in May and 703 candidates got invites.
Ontario selected candidates with years of work experience in six different tech sectors. The Express Entry-aligned immigration pathway took place in May 13 and only candidates with CRS points between 421 and 451 passed through.
Prince Edward Island
Prince Edward Island invited candidates that work in the essential service industries. The draw was help in May 15 and only 15 candidates passed through. The province had held two other draws in March 23 and April 27.
In total, 29 candidates got invitations from the three draws held in Prince Edward Island.
Saskatchewan
On May 28, Saskatchewan held a draw and selected 252 candidates from the International Skilled Worker category.
This is the PNP in Saskatchewan since the country closed its borders because of the corona virus pandemic. The province had a previous draw in March 26 held for Occupations In-Demand candidates.
What are the PNP activities planned for June?
From the look of things, June will also be a busy PNP month. We expect developments from different provinces as the days proceed.
