RURAL AND NORTHERN IMMIGRATION PILOT

The Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot is a community-driven program. It’s designed to spread the benefits of economic immigration to smaller communities by creating a path to permanent residence for skilled foreign workers who want to work and live in one of the participating communities.

There are 4 steps to applying for permanent residence under this pilot.

  1. Check that you meet both
  • IRCC eligibility requirements and
  • the community-specific requirements.
  1. Find an eligible job with an employer in one of the participating communities.
  2. Once you have a job offer, submit your application for recommendation to the community.
  3. If a community recommends you, apply for permanent residence.

Each community will also have its own

  • additional eligibility requirements
  • job search process
  • community recommendation application process
