Immigration to Canada through Northwest Territories Express Entry

The Northwest Territories Express Entry

The Northwest Territories Express Entry program allows the Northwest Territories to address labor shortages and market needs by hiring foreign workers through the federal Express Entry selection system.

Successful applicants will receive Canadian permanent residency. The Northwest Territories’ Express Entry acceptance program aligns with the federal Express Entry system, significantly reducing the processing time for applications. This program ensures that qualified applicants receive priority processing for their applications to the NTNP and can apply for permanent residency if selected.
