French-speaking Express Entry candidates invited by Nova Scotia


On April 27, 2020, Nova Scotia invited Express Entry candidates to apply for a provincial nomination for permanent residence in Canada via its Labour Market Priorities Stream.
This new draw goals Express Entry candidates who have selected French as their first official language and have an 8 or higher Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) score in all language skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking). In all these language skills, selected candidates were required to have a CLB score of at least 6 or better in English, and either a bachelor's degree or a completed program of three years or more at a university, college, trade or technical school.

Candidates also needed to have a valid Express Entry number and follow the minimum requirements in order to be accepted in the pool. 

The number of candidates obtaining letters of interest and the minimum score for the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) has not yet been confirmed. The CRS score determines the rank of a candidate in the Express Entry pool, and is based, among many factors such as age, education, skilled work experience and English or French skills.

Express Entry candidates with a provincial nomination earn a further 600 points against their CRS score, essentially ensuring an invitation to apply for permanent residency in Canada. Candidates which received a letter of interest in the latest draw will have 60 calendar days to submit a complete application to the Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP) and are needed to include copies of the results of their language tests as well as proof of education.

The Labour Market Priorities Stream enables the Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP) to quest for eligible candidates meeting the province's labour market demands in such Express Entry draw. The stream has conducted 10 draws, including this one, since its launch in 2018, and has welcomed early childhood educators, financial auditors, accountants, social workers, and nurses, among other professionals. ​
