How You Can Be Considered for the NLPNP or AIP?

To be considered under the Newfoundland and Labrador Provincial Nominee Program or the Atlantic Immigration Program, candidates must first meet the basic eligibility criteria, such as relevant work experience, educational qualifications, and language proficiency.

A key requirement for both pathways is securing a valid job offer from a designated employer in Newfoundland and Labrador, as these programs are employer-driven.

For NLPNP, you may also need to create a profile in the Expression of Interest system and receive an invitation from the province. For AIP, your employer must be designated and provide an endorsement for your application.

Once selected, you can apply for permanent residence in Canada. Meeting labour market needs and aligning your profile with in-demand occupations in NLPNP can significantly improve your chances of selection.
