9. What is the process for potential candidates who want to
use both a Provincial Nominee Program and Express Entry?
Category: Provinces/Territories
There are two ways to do this. A person can:
- apply to the PNP first, get a nomination and then fill out an Express Entry profile; or
- fill out the Express Entry profile first. Provinces and territories can then search the Express Entry pool and ask a candidate to apply for their PNP. When the candidate gets a nomination certificate, they will update their Express Entry profile.
In either case, once a person updates their Express Entry profile to show they have a provincial or territorial nomination certificate, they will be given enough additional points to be invited to apply at the next eligible draw of candidates.
Apply for your assessment under the Canadian Express entry program.
