The Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP)

The Nova Scotia: Express Entry stream is designed for skilled professionals who have an active profile in the federal Express Entry system and possess the qualifications, work experience and skills needed in Nova Scotia's labour market. This stream enables the province to nominate eligible candidates for Canadian permanent residency based on current economic and workforce priorities. Applicants who receive a provincial nomination benefit from additional Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points, significantly improving their chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence through Express Entry.

The Skilled Worker Stream is an employer-driven pathway for foreign workers and eligible international graduates who have a full-time permanent job offer from a Nova Scotia employer. The stream helps employers fill labour shortages by recruiting qualified candidates with the skills, education and work experience needed in the province. It also includes specialized sub-criteria for construction occupations, physicians and other in-demand occupations, providing eligible applicants with a pathway to Canadian permanent residency while supporting Nova Scotia's workforce and economic growth.

The Entrepreneur Stream is designed for experienced business owners and senior business managers who wish to establish, purchase or invest in a business in Nova Scotia. Applicants are required to actively manage the day-to-day operations of the business while contributing to the province's economic growth and job creation. After successfully operating the business for at least one year and meeting the program requirements, eligible applicants may receive a provincial nomination for Canadian permanent residency. This stream supports entrepreneurship, business innovation and long-term economic development in Nova Scotia.

The Nova Scotia Graduate stream is designed for international graduates of eligible Nova Scotia universities and community colleges who have successfully started or acquired a business in the province. The stream encourages talented graduates to remain in Nova Scotia by supporting entrepreneurship, innovation and long-term business growth. Applicants who actively manage their business and meet the program requirements may become eligible for provincial nomination, providing a pathway to Canadian permanent residency while contributing to the province's economy and creating local employment opportunities.

Each Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP) stream has its own eligibility requirements and selection criteria. Applicants must meet the requirements of their chosen stream and demonstrate their intention to live and work in Nova Scotia. Successful candidates who receive a provincial nomination can proceed with their application for Canadian permanent residency through the appropriate federal immigration process.
