For 2022, Quebec has invited the most candidates it has ever received. Candidates for provincial immigration programs have received invitations to apply from Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia this week.
With the exception of Quebec and Nunavut, the majority of Canadian provinces and territories run their own provincial nomination programs. Interested candidates may receive invitations from these programs to submit an application for a provincial nomination.
The immigration policies of Quebec are different from those of Canada and are handled by the province.
Since its inception in 1998, the PNP has gained a great deal of notoriety and now handles more than 80,000 PR admissions annually. The federal and provincial governments of Canada have increased the number of PNP admissions because they see it as a useful tool for advancing the nation's economic development.
