Hi all,
I am Graduating from Ontario in a couple of months.
I heard the Manitoba PNP program is good. But cant really find much information on the processing time.
Can anyone please advice me on the best Province to move for a better chance of PNP?

Thank you all!

I have graduated from a 3 year program from Ontario in 2014 and have worked in Toronto for 1.5 years in NOC A.

I created my profile for Express Entry (Canadian Experience) in May 2016.

However, my CRS score is 375 point for various reasons and Ontario PNP doesn't accept such a low score with its threshold of 400 points.

As far as I understand, other provinces' PNPs might have lower passing mark or other simpler requirements.

I have tried researching but there are 11 provinces with tons of text each explaining their PNP's and it would take several week to rake through them to get a general idea.

I was wondering if i need to hire an immigration lawyer or ask someone here on the forum to give me a general idea which Province would be easier to apply for PNP.

I am open to a move to another province and we are ready to do whatever it takes to try and stay in Canada, however I have my family with me and it would be a big deal for us to move, therefore we want to be sure it will be worth a shot before we make the move.

well since you are in canada, you can apply for mpnp, it will be faster because you are inland, and at CIC stage too, it will be fast, so go for it

Please note that for MPNP, you need to have a connection to manitoba (friend, close/distant relative, education, work). If work is your connection, you will be required to work for at least 1 year for a manitoba employer to be eligible since you are comming from another province.

See requirement for international students from other province.

Have you tried calculating your points with your spouse as the principal applicant or with a higher IELTS/CELPIP score (you get more points for adaptability with higher language scores!)

My score is 375 (actually it is 374 as of last week, i don't know how and when and why i lost one point).
I don't think my score will ever grow taking into account my age and my wife's lack of higher education.
So I have to roll with the punches and be content with what i have.

I just wanted to note that replies along the lines of "Any PNP is good" are not very helpful.
The topic's title is which is the best (easiest) province for PNP and I am sure there are provinces with more lax requirements.
I can either pay a lawyer to get this information or use this forum which is what it is made for.

So if anyone has any information about which province is easiest to get PNP I would appreciate your input with a more detailed answer.
Thank you!

If you were looking for provincial nomination a year ago, I'd say all provinces back then were rather lax with the requirements.

Now that most of them are closed (especially Ontario, Alberta and Saskachewan), your best bet would be Manitoba, Prince Edward, or New Brunswick.

I beg to differ on this. International students that study in other provinces (inland) who want to apply for MPNP must work for 1year for a manitoba employer except they have another connection to the province. So whataver time the MPNP application takes (3-6months on the average) you need to add 1 year (time frame) of working in manitoba. Cheers!

As of now all the PNPs are difficult. But I personally think Saskatchewan is the best in terms of processing times and flexibility. Please find my opinion below:

1. Prince Edwards Island: Only 1 in 100 applications will receive ITA. There are no clear guidelines on how they offer ITAs. So chances are 1/100

2. New Brunswick Island: Even though they encourage applicants (occupations in demand) to send EOI's through mail, only 1/1000 will get ITA. If you attend information sessions or have relatives in NB, then the chancces are more. But they take so much time for processing applications

3 Saskatchewan: You don't know when they open the intake. If you prepare your application, with all federal documents, funds, educational credentials, etc, then you can submit your application as and when it opens. It has the best processing times compared to other provinces. I highly recommend this province as the chances to receive nomination are more if we submit all documents

4. Ontario: It's not opened as of now

5. Quebec: It's closed

6. Nova Scotia: They recently moved to online version from paper based version. It is expected to open soon. So keep your eyes on this province. But processing might take upto an year based on last year stats.

7. Alberta & British Columbia: Closed now
