PEI Selection Priorities

For the November 9 draw, invitations were extended to people working in occupations and priority sectors based on their economic impact in Prince Edward Island. International graduates from UPEI, Holland College and Collège de l’Île were prioritized.

More generally, the Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP) says its pathways depend on federal immigration allocations, application volumes and provincial labour market needs. The province is currently selecting and prioritizing skilled workers in higher-demand sectors including healthcare, trades, manufacturing and other key industries facing labour shortages.

People working in sales and service occupations may not receive an invitation to apply at this time.

How the PEI EOI Process Works

An Expression of Interest is not an application. It indicates that a person wants to be considered for an opportunity to apply to the PEI PNP.

The PEI Office of Immigration reserves the right to limit intake or make exclusions from Expression of Interest draws. Receiving a provincial invitation is distinct from a nomination, a federal invitation to apply and a permanent residence decision.

What Happens After Receiving a PEI PNP Invitation?

Under the rule effective November 1, 2025, invited candidates have 30 calendar days to submit a complete application to the PEI Office of Immigration. This replaced the previous 60-day window; late applications are not accepted.

Follow the invitation email and the requirements for your pathway. Submit the applicant forms, applicable employer forms and supporting evidence. Depending on the stream, this may include language results, work references, a job offer and an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) for foreign education; these are not universal requirements for every applicant.

Creating an EOI profile is free. The published workforce nomination application fee, including PEI Express Entry, is CAD 300 and is non-refundable.

Accepting an Express Entry-linked nomination adds 600 CRS points, subject to the cap on additional points. A federal invitation and permanent residence approval remain separate steps; nomination does not guarantee either outcome.

Non-Express Entry nominees submit their federal permanent residence application through the IRCC Permanent Residence Portal. Follow the process specified in the nomination package.
