Great news for those considering a move to New Brunswick! Between October 6 and 9, the New Brunswick Provincial Nominee Program (NB PNP) held three draws, sending out over 500 invitations to candidates eager to settle in this beautiful province.

These invitations were made through two main streams: the New Brunswick Express Entry stream, which targets skilled workers currently employed in New Brunswick, and the Skilled Worker stream for those in priority occupations.

In total, 522 invitations were issued. If you submitted your application by the cut-off date of October 5 at 11:59 pm Atlantic Standard Time, you may want to check your inbox!

The New Brunswick Express Entry stream is for skilled foreign nationals already in the federal Express Entry pool. To receive an invitation, candidates must have a full-time, non-seasonal job in a qualifying occupation within New Brunswick. You should also have at least 12 months of full-time work experience in the province.

The Skilled Worker stream, on the other hand, is tailored for foreign nationals currently employed or those who have a job offer from an eligible employer. Specific requirements vary depending on whether the candidate is a graduate or has experience in the province.

Of note, the province has granted a total of 3,589 invitations for provincial nominations for 2025 already! So, if you're eyeing a move, now is the time to assess your eligibility!
