The Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP) is a provincial immigration program that allows Nova Scotia to nominate eligible individuals for Canadian permanent residence. The program aims to attract skilled workers, international graduates, and other qualified candidates who can help address local labour market needs and contribute to the province’s economic growth.
Through various immigration pathways, eligible applicants may qualify based on factors such as work experience, education, language proficiency, employment offers, and their ability to establish themselves successfully in Nova Scotia. Depending on the pathway, applicants may need to meet specific provincial selection criteria and receive a nomination before applying for permanent residence through Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
