However, in February, Newfoundland and Labrador successfully negotiated an additional <strong>1,000 nomination spaces<\/strong>, raising its total to <strong>2,050 spots<\/strong> for the PNP.

The EOI system allows the province to prioritize candidates based on labour market needs, qualifications, and employer demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the <strong>Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP)<\/strong> continues to serve as an employer-driven pathway for foreign workers and international graduates who secure a valid job offer from a designated employer in Atlantic Canada. Successful candidates may apply for <strong>permanent residence<\/strong> and are eligible for a <strong>temporary work permit<\/strong> while awaiting PR approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By strategically managing both PNP and AIP draws, Newfoundland and Labrador is addressing its labour market needs while ensuring immigration spaces are filled efficiently before year-end.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-vivid-red-background-color has-text-color has-background has-medium-font-size\">For a <strong> consultation<\/strong> about Immigration options, reach out to the <strong>CAD IMMIGRATION <\/strong>today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/cadimmigration\/profilecard\/?igsh=aWYzamtvMzlvZHUy\" style=\"border-radius:50px;color:#fffffa;background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(135,9,53) 0%,rgb(179,22,22) 100%)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">INSTAGRAM<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@cad_immigration?_t=8rYlOtSiktj&amp;_r=1\" style=\"border-radius:50px;color:#fffffa;background:linear-gradient(317deg,rgb(135,9,53) 0%,rgb(179,22,22) 100%)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TIKTOK<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/cad-immigration\/\" style=\"border-radius:50px;color:#fffffa;background:linear-gradient(42deg,rgb(135,9,53) 0%,rgb(179,22,22) 100%)\">LINKEDIN<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On August 13, 2025, the Office of Immigration and Multiculturalism in Newfoundland and Labrador conducted a new immigration draw, issuing a total of 231 Invitations to Apply (ITAs).
