9. What is the process for potential candidates who want to use both a Provincial Nominee Program and Express Entry?

There are two ways to do this. A person can:

apply to the PNP first, get a nomination and then fill out an Express Entry profile; or
fill out the Express Entry profile first. Provinces and territories can then search the Express Entry pool and ask a candidate to apply for their PNP. When the candidate gets a nomination certificate, they will update their Express Entry profile.
In either case, once a person updates their Express Entry profile to show they have a provincial or territorial nomination certificate, they will be given enough additional points to be invited to apply at the next eligible draw of candidates.


Here it is. But my question is that so the candidates mentioned here have to get their Provincial nominee letter after the EE has been launched? so they have to get the nomination letter after 2015? Or what?

hey littleapple..I have similar situation like you...fresh Grad from UA, just got nomination...I worked since March...Not sure if I should go EE or regular PNP...Another friend of mine, similar situation, she has 4 months experience, just got nomination...She applied with an immigration layer( agency?), they advise her to apply PNP instead of EE. they said "the processing time for PNP is actually 8-10 months and EE is 6 after you got ITA..not much difference. " Another friend from this forum said he called AINP, the officer also advise him to apply PNP...so..I guess maybe we have to believe them??

Totally confused... Does EE cover a portion of PNP? Sigh
