Nomination, then IRCC

Provincial Nominee Program

A province or territory nominates people who meet its streams. IRCC then decides permanent residence. There are two federal application routes: Express Entry (enhanced, +600 CRS) and non-Express Entry (base). A nomination is not a visa.

This page is an index: official landing, whether an Express Entry-aligned stream exists, and current stream names from official pages. It is not a full page for every provincial stream. Ontario is the deep card.
