PEI PNP draws depend on federal immigration allocations, application volumes, and PEI’s labour market needs. The PEI Office of Immigration usually processes eligible applications and prioritizes higher-demand sectors that best support the current labour market needs.

The EOI system gathers important information about applicants to rank and select those who are most likely to meet Prince Edward Island’s economic and labour market needs. The final score is based on one or more of the following attributes:

• Language Proficiency (English or French)
• Education
• Work Experience
• Strategic priorities: attributes that would address immediate labour market needs in PEI
• Other factors relevant to employment prospects: including but not limited to having a job offer in PEI and/or previous Canadian work experience
