Prince Edward Island has issued 135 invitations to apply to immigration candidates in a draw that took place June 21.
Of this total, 32 candidates in the federal government’s Express Entry system were issued invitations through PEI’s dedicated Express Entry immigration category.
The province’s immigrant nominee program, the PEI PNP, said Express Entry candidates who received invitations were already working in the province.
Express Entry candidates who wish to be considered under PEI’s Express Entry Category must create a profile in the province’s Expression of Interest (EOI) system, which was introduced in February.
Express Entry candidates who are nominated by PEI receive an additional 600 Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points.
