Hi, my NOC is 2147. Have they updated any requirements for EOI ? Should I apply anyway. And I heard that people who visit the info session have a 90% change of getting a provincial nomination. Kindly let me know.
Currently NBPNP is still only accepting EOIs from those who are already living and working in the province.
Hopefully they will open the EOI submission for overseas candidates again soon. Probably after the current round of job fairs and information sessions.
When the EOI submission is open for overseas candidates, they usually have a list of in-demand occupations listed on the website, along with the message that they have "
temporarily opened to accept submissions from those who attended an information session in the past 24 months". So that is the time you can submit your EOI if your NOC is in the OID list
AND you attended an information session. If you fulfill those 2 conditions (amongst others) then yes, you have a good chance of receiving an ITA from NBPNP to submit a full application. After submitting the full application, it goes through 3 reviews before you are notified whether or not you are nominated. Most people who applied, did receive nominations, but please remember some received the nominations very quickly, and other had to wait several months.
PLEASE NOTE: Job Fairs and Information sessions are
NOT the same! And attending a job fair
CANNOT be used as a connection to NB to submit an EOI. If you attend a job fair, the only way to submit an EOI after that is
IF you are offered a job by an NBPNP employer - then you can apply for NBPNP - Skilled Worker with Employer Support
