Provincial Nomination Program (PNP) Express Entry

[aniketganoo]

Im applying through express entry from India (along with my wife) and have sent the documents to WES for assessment. I just want to know how the Provincial Nomination Program (PNP) works? And am i eligible to apply under it? If yes, then how and when can i apply for it and other Fees structure details. I have very less knowledge about it so if you guys can enlighten me that'll be great. Thanks.

You can skim the threads so you'll have an idea:

Hi, hope you can help me with my dilemma regarding whether is accept or reject the ITA.

I am a provincial nominee and received the ITA on nov 27. My points is 885.

With the help of our friends in this forum and some info from the net, I learned that I will have to request new work certificates from all my job experiences following the format requirement by CIC. But I currently reside in Singapore and most of my previous jobs were in Phil. Also to consider the upcoming Christmas festive where a lot of offices will close for the season, I might be needing more time to gather all the new documents I need.

I learned that we can reject the ITA and be put back to the pool and considered again for the next draw. If I do so, I will have more time to collate all my documents before the new 60 day deadline comes. But with my provincial nomination expiring on Mar 2016, I am worried that if I don't get included in the EE draw just in time, I will lose very big points and will make my chances in the EE draw slimmer.

I hope you can share your views on this dilemma. Would greatly appreciate your advice.

I have some additional questions:

1. Do spouses also need to give job certs or only the principal applicants?
2. My EE profile says I'm under federal skilled worker category. Is this the same as the Provincial Nomination Program (PNP)?
3. What are the requirements to be provided by the sponsor in the APR?

Thanks so much.

There should definitely be several draws before March, so you can safely decline the ITA.

I hope you can share your views on this dilemma. Would greatly appreciate your advice.

I have some additional questions:

1. Do spouses also need to give job certs or only the principal applicants? (If your spouse claims points for work done IN canada, they need letters, otherwise PA alone)
2. My EE profile says I'm under federal skilled worker category. Is this the same as the Provincial Nomination Program (PNP)? (No)
3. What are the requirements to be provided by the sponsor in the APR?

Thanks so much.

Thanks so much One_Topsy for your reply.

Is it possible to do amendments on the EE profile even now that the ITA is already out?
