A total of 122 invitations were issued to candidates as follows:

2) Business Impact: Work Permit Stream - 13
To enter, through the PEI-PNP Express Entry Program, you need to make a separate Expression of Interest (EOI) profile, and express your interest in the provincial nomination.
Your profile will get an EOI score out of 100 based on education, employment experience, and ability in English or French language. If you get a high score, you will get an invite to apply (ITA) for a provincial nomination through monthly draws.
It is compulsory for candidates in these streams to be residing and working in PEI; or have an appropriate full-time, long-term job offer from an employer in the province, and meet some other requirements.
Those who get a provincial nomination get an extra 600 points toward their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score.
