PEI holds largest PNP draw ever

Prince Edward Island issued 305 invitations to Express Entry, Labour Impact, and Business Impact immigration candidates.

The PEI PNP specified that the people who were invited in August had stated that they are currently living and working in the province. Candidates were invited if they had filed Expression of Interest (EOI) profiles before June 2020.

The PEI PNP’s Express Entry Category is aligned with the Canadian government’s Express Entry system.

In order to be considered for a provincial nomination from PEI, Express Entry candidates need to create an EOI profile with the PEI PNP.

EOI profiles are given points based on the province’s unique points grid. The highest-scoring candidates are then invited to apply through monthly draws.

The PEI PNP did not provide a breakdown of how many Express Entry and Labour Impact candidates were invited, nor the minimum EOI score required for each category.
