The process involves identifying a Canadian business to purchase, developing a business plan, LMIA application and eventually Work Permit application.

Province Nomination Program

If you want to immigrate to Canada through the Province Nomination Program (PNP), a Canadian province or territory has to nominate you.

The first thing you need to do is apply to the PNP in the province or territory where you want to settle. To qualify, you must have the skills, education and work experience you will need to settle in Canada and support yourself and your family.

The province or territory will assess if you will be able to meet their economic or labour market needs, and those of Canada.

After the province or territory approves your application, your next step is to apply for permanent residence within the time period they set out. Our team of experts will let you know whether you must apply through the Express Entry system or through regular application process:

• Nomination under an Express Entry PNP stream: If you are not already in the Express Entry Pool, you will need to complete an Express Entry Profile and be accepted into the pool.
  OR
• Nomination under a non-Express Entry PNP stream: Permanent resident applicants who were nominated under a non-Express Entry PNP stream should apply for permanent residence using the regular application process.
