Nova Scotia is a beautiful maritime province on Canada’s east coast, known for its stunning coastlines, welcoming communities, and high quality of life.  With a strong economy and growing demand for skilled workers, the province of Nova Scotia is an ideal place to live, work, and study.

The NSNP is a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), which means the province of Nova Scotia can nominate those who meet specific criteria to apply for permanent residence in Canada.  The Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP) is designed to attract skilled individuals, international graduates, entrepreneurs, and other immigrants who can contribute to Nova Scotia’s economy and integrate successfully into the local community.
