Physician Stream
The Physician Stream is designed to attract qualified physicians to Nova Scotia. Candidates who meet the requirements and have a job offer from a Nova Scotia healthcare provider can apply for permanent residency.
For individuals seeking to establish their careers and settle in Nova Scotia, Canada, the Nova Scotia Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) offers the Skilled Worker Stream as a pathway to permanent residency. This program is specifically designed for individuals who have received a job offer from a Nova Scotia employer and possess the necessary skills and qualifications to contribute to the province's economy and community.
To be eligible for the Nova Scotia PNP Skilled Worker Stream, applicants must meet several criteria:
Once applicants have confirmed their eligibility for the Skilled Worker Stream, they can begin the application process by visiting the Nova Scotia Office of Immigration (NSOI) website. The next steps involve gathering and uploading the required documents and submitting the application.
It’s worth noting that there is no application fee for the Nova Scotia PNP Skilled Worker Stream, making it more accessible to qualified individuals. This fee waiver removes a potential barrier for applicants, allowing them to focus on meeting the program’s requirements rather than worrying about financial constraints.
After submitting the application, applicants should be prepared for a processing time of at least three months. This duration allows the NSOI to thoroughly review each application, verify the provided information, and ensure compliance with program requirements.
During this period, applicants are encouraged to monitor the progress of their application and promptly respond to any requests for additional information or documentation from the NSOI. Maintaining open communication and cooperation throughout the process can help expedite the application review and decision-making.
If the application is successful, applicants will receive a nomination certificate via email, either directly or through their authorized representative. This nomination certificate is a crucial step in the immigration process, as it is then forwarded to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
With the nomination certificate in hand, the final step is to apply for permanent residence directly with IRCC within six months. This marks the transition from temporary residency to permanent settlement in Nova Scotia.
Additionally, applicants have the option to request a Letter of Support from the NSOI for a temporary work permit. This allows individuals to work in Nova Scotia while awaiting the processing of their permanent residence application by IRCC, providing stability and continuity during the transition period.
The Nova Scotia PNP Skilled Worker Stream offers a valuable opportunity for skilled individuals to build meaningful careers and establish their lives in Nova Scotia, contributing to the province’s growth and prosperity. By meeting the program’s requirements and successfully navigating the application process, applicants can embark on a new chapter in their professional and personal journey in Canada, with the assurance of no application fees and a processing time of at least three months.
