How Can You Be Considered for Immigration to Newfoundland and Labrador?
Earlier this year in February, Newfoundland and Labrador transitioned to an Expression of Interest System for both the Newfoundland and Labrador Provincial Nominee Program and the Atlantic Immigration Program.
Before this change, the province operated on a first-come, first-served basis.
Now, if you’re interested in immigrating:
- You must submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to the office of Immigration and Multiculturalism.
- Once your Expression of Interest is submitted to the office of Immigration and Multiculturalism reviews all the submissions and issues invitations to apply, or ITAs in batches throughout the year.
- You can only proceed with an NLPNP application or be included in an Atlantic Immigration Program endorsement application if you have received an invitation to apply.
- In order to be considered for an Invitation to apply, you must align with the labour market needs and ongoing interests of the province.
- Newfoundland and Labrador has identified certain in-demand occupations within priority sectors. These sectors are healthcare, information and communications technology, and aquaculture.
If your job is part of one of these sectors, your application will be prioritised and exempt from labour market testing, making the process faster and smoother.
