Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP) has conducted a new draw. This was the second invitation round conducted by the province in 2025. This draw inlines with the recently announced PEI PNP draw schedule for 2025.

However, the first PEI PNP draw of 2025, which was conducted on January 24, was not part of the announced draw schedule. Prince Edward Island is the only province in Canada that makes its draw schedule public. In 2025, we can expect 11 PEI PNP draws.

The PEI PNP latest draw was held on February 20, 2025. A total of 87 candidates from PEI’s Labour and Express Entry stream were invited to apply for permanent residence (PR).

PEI PNP Labour & Express Entry Stream

The Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP) Labour & Express Entry Stream helps skilled workers and Express Entry candidates apply for Canada PR.

The Labour Stream is for people who have a job offer from a PEI employer. It includes three categories: Skilled Workers, Critical Workers, and International Graduates. Candidates must have relevant work experience, meet language requirements, and plan to live in PEI.

On the other hand, the Express Entry Stream is for candidates with a valid Express Entry profile. If nominated by PEI, they get 600 extra CRS points, increasing their chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for PR.

Both streams help PEI attract workers in high-demand jobs. To apply, candidates must submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) and meet eligibility criteria. If selected, they receive a provincial nomination, making it easier to get Canadian PR.
