Canada Invites 792 Provincial Nominees to Apply for Permanent Residence
Published
Canada has issued new invitations to apply (ITA) for permanent residence to 792 candidates nominated by provinces and territories. The invitations were sent through the Express Entry system, which is the federal online process that manages applications from skilled workers who want to move to Canada permanently.
The Express Entry system ranks candidates based on factors such as age, work experience, language ability, and education. Candidates who receive an invitation can then submit a full application for permanent residence. Provincial nominee programs allow provinces and territories to select people who have skills that meet their local labour needs, and a nomination adds extra points to a candidate's profile in the federal ranking.
The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) department regularly issues these invitations in rounds, so the number and type of candidates selected can change from one round to the next. Applicants who are interested in this process are advised to check the official IRCC website for current requirements and updates.
The latest round shows that Canada continues to use Express Entry and provincial nominations to fill jobs and support economic growth across the country.
