What is Canada PNP and how to get it from India? Canada expects to welcome a total of 401,000 immigrants by 2021. Canada PNP stands for Canada's Provincial Nominee Program, a federal-provincial-territorial immigration program. As per the Canada-Quebec Accord, Quebec has the rights and duties with respect to the number of immigrants intended for Quebec and the selection, and integration of those immigrants. The PNP, which goes via the provincial territorial administrations, is considered as an accelerated or fast-tracked path to Canadian immigration. Securing Canada PR through the PNP method is a two-step procedure. To begin with, a PNP nomination must be obtained from one of the provinces or territories that make up the PNP.
