Do I Need a Provincial Nomination?

No, Provincial Nomination is not a requirement for Canadian immigration.

The Provincial Nomination Program is simply an option for individuals to obtain Permanent Residence quicker. If individuals qualify for the provincial nomination program, they are at an advantage due to the fact that they are an asset to the province/territory in some way or another.

Also, if you are a Provincial Nominee, the processing times of your application will be much quicker. Nevertheless, there are many other ways in which an individual can obtain Permanent Residency. You can obtain Permanent Resident status through a variety of categories such as:

• Federal Skilled Workers category of Express Entry,
• Business Immigration Program,
• Family Class Sponsorship,
• Canadian Experience Class category of Express Entry, and lastly
• Through Government-Assisted Refugee Program or the Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program.

Overall, the Provincial Nomination Program is not a requirement for Canadian immigration.
