Ontario’s Pilot Provincial Nominee Program

Ontario’s Pilot Provincial Nominee Program (Pilot PNP) launched on May 24, 2007. In this first year, the Pilot PNP will nominate 500 individuals. The Pilot PNP is employer driven. This means that you can only apply if your employer is pre-screened, the position is approved, and your employer provides you with a nominee application package from the Pilot PNP. The Pilot PNP has two Categories: an Employer Category and a Multinational Investor Category.

- Under the Employer Category , employers must obtain approval for the positions they intend to fill under the Pilot PNP in Ontario. This is called the Employer Category pre-screen application process.

- Under the Multinational Investor Category , employers must obtain approval for the positions they intend to fill under the Pilot PNP in Ontario. This is called the Multinational Investor Pre-screen application process.
