PROVINCIAL NOMINEE PROGRAMS
Graduate Students
Several nominee programs offer students graduating from public post secondary colleges and universities, the opportunity to apply for nomination, if they receive an offer of full time permanent employment in a National Occupational Classification 0, A, or B category position, from a local employer. Once the student is nominated by the province or territory they may immediately apply for permanent residence status through the Canadian Consulate, and those are normally approved in about one year.
