IRCC has extended the on-hold for PNP based paper applications for applicants who lost their jobs due to Covid-19. Until March 10, 2021, provincial and territorial jurisdictions may request that a PNP application be placed on hold in cases where an applicant has experienced a job loss in Canada as a result of the pandemic.
This processing pause also applies to applicants nominated in a provincial or territorial business, entrepreneur, or self-employed stream. For these streams, the province or territory will issue a confirmation that the nomination on file is maintained or issue a new nomination.
