The Prince Edward Island Express Entry Stream is connected to the federal Express Entry (EE) System, a points-based immigration management system. Candidates in this stream are selected based on their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) scores and are required to meet the specific criteria outlined by the PEI PNP. Thus, applicants get an invite under the PEI PNP Express Entry category because:

• Firstly, have an active EE profile under the FSW/FST or CEC category.
• Secondly, meet Human Capital Factors:
  • Age
  • Education
  • Work Experience
  • Language Skills
• Also, meet the PEI PNP draw cut-off.

Post getting a PEI PNP nomination, applicants get an extra 600 CRS score in the EE pool. And their chances of a Canada PR visa go up.
