PEI PNP Express Entry Draw 

The PEI PNP Express Entry Category is an advanced PNP linked with the federal government’s Express Entry system. To get an invitation from this stream, candidates need to register their profile in the system.

Express Entry manages all the immigration applications from economic-class immigration programs like:

• Federal Skilled Worker Program
• Federal Skilled Trades Program
• Canadian Experience Class

The candidates whose profile matches with the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score will be invited to apply. The score is allotted based on their age, education, work experience, and language proficiency in English or French.

Express Entry candidates who receive the invitation will be allotted with extra 600 points for their CRS Score. This will guarantee the candidate to receive the Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence in the succeeding Express Entry draw.

To get considered for the PEI PNP, the candidates need to create an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile associated with it.

The EOI profiles are given points depending upon the various factors in the PEI unique points grid. The candidates with the highest scores will be invited to apply through monthly draws by the provinces.
