Qualification Requirements

To move to Prince Edward Island under this program, or any other Express Entry provincial immigration programs, you must meet the requirements of the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program or Canadian Experience Class Program and possess a registered Express Entry profile.

Foreign workers who have registered for Express Entry and wish to reside in this province must apply for an Expression of Interest under the Prince Edward Island Expression of Interest system on the province’s immigration website (this application is active for half of the year, unlike the vast majority of these Expression of Interest documents for other provincial systems, where the application is active for the entire year) and be assessed on such indicators as level of language competence, age, level of education, work experience, and adaptability.

Provided you get enough points on the Comprehensive Ranking System, you will be granted a nomination from that region (equal to additional 600 points), which virtually guarantees further permanent residency in the country.
