This draw, conducted through the Labour Impact and Express Entry streams of the Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP), reflects the province’s strategic focus on specific sectors.
Targeted Sectors: The invitations were directed towards individuals employed in the following sectors:
- Healthcare
- Manufacturing
- Food Processing
- Agriculture
These sectors have been identified as pivotal for growth and demand within the provincial economy.
- This category considers candidates already in the federal Express Entry Pool for provincial nomination.
- A provincial nomination adds 600 points to a candidate’s Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, virtually guaranteeing an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for Canadian immigration.
- Designed to address labour shortages, this category is open to foreign workers already in PEI with employment in specific critical demand occupations.
Conclusion: This draw reaffirms PEI’s commitment to attracting skilled workers in key sectors, contributing to both the province’s economy and community. With 42 invitations issued, Prince Edward Island continues to stand out as a desirable destination for skilled immigrants looking to make significant contributions.
