Language Skills

This stream does not specify language skills terms. But the need for language skills depends on the job offer the applicant accepts from a Canadian employer.

The language skill terms depend on the NOC code of the job such as:

• 0 and A – CLB/NCLC 7 Level and up
• B – CLB/NCLC 5 Level
• C and D – CLB/NCLC 4 Level

Note: This factor is not accounted for in the EOI system for the International Graduate Stream (PEI PNP). But is considered for the overall approval of the candidate.

Education Level

Work Experience

This stream does not specify work experience criteria. Instead, an applicant can apply, as soon as they get a job offer and support from a Canadian employer, for the immigration program.
