Different provinces in Canada offer accelerated immigration for qualified skilled workers and experienced business persons who wish to settle and become permanent residents of Canada in their specific location. While semi-skilled workers can be sponsored for permanent residency, the criteria of this category varies in each province.

The Provincial Nominee Program selects and nominates based on the applicants ability and potential to become economically established and in the case of business applicants they are assessed on their potential to provide significant economic benefit to the province.

Individuals nominated by a province, together with their spouse and dependent children, are eligible to apply for a permanent resident visa from Citizenship and Immigration Canada in the Provincial Nominee Class. Citizenship and Immigration Canada gives priority to processing permanent resident visa applications for provincial nominees. Citizenship and Immigration Canada makes the final decision on these applications.
