Research Atlantic Immigration, Rural Community Immigration and Francophone Community Immigration as distinct employer/community-linked pathways.
Employer-driven permanent residence for eligible workers and graduates with a job offer from a designated employer in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI or Newfoundland and Labrador. Provincial endorsement is part of the journey.
Community-linked permanent residence requiring a qualifying job offer and a recommendation from a participating rural community, plus the federal program requirements.
Community-linked permanent residence supporting Francophone immigration outside Quebec through participating Francophone-minority communities.
These programs operate only in designated provinces/communities.
A job offer from an eligible/designated employer is a core requirement in employer-driven regional pathways.
NOC/TEER, duties, wage and work-experience requirements still matter.
Check the program’s current language, education/ECA and work-experience thresholds.
Obtain the required community recommendation or provincial endorsement where applicable.
After the local/provincial step, apply to IRCC and satisfy admissibility and permanent residence requirements.
