Immigrate to PEI in 2024
To initiate the PEI immigration process, the initial step involves creating an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile. This comprehensive profile encompasses personal details, educational background, work experience, language proficiency, and other pertinent information. After the submission of your application, the PEI PNP points calculator assigns you a score, with higher scores enhancing your likelihood of receiving a nomination.
Upon meticulous scrutiny of applications by the Office of Immigration, PEI nominates successful candidates, allowing them to proceed with the application for Canadian permanent residency through the federal government.
