About PEI PNP
Prince Edward Island has a special place in Canada as its smallest province and as the birthplace of our country in 1864. The vision for Prince Edward Island in the twenty first century includes drawing immigrants who are highly skilled, ingenious and hard working to join us as Canadian citizens and new "Islanders" in building our future together.
The Nominee Program targets immigrants who intend to settle on PEI; who have language ability in English or French; and who have earned a baccalaureate degree, or equivalent, from an accredited institution. Specific financial criteria apply depending upon the program element under which you intend to apply. These are:
- Skilled Worker - an applicant with specialized skills and experience which may fill labour market gaps
- Immigrant Entrepreneur - an applicant who proposes to establish a viable, new business
- Immigrant Partner - an applicant who proposes to make an investment in an existing PEI company and to take an active role in that company as a director or as a senior manager
