Prince Edward Island PNP Draw: 195 Invitations Issued on September 17, 2026

What happened

Prince Edward Island held an Expression of Interest draw on September 17, 2026 and issued 195 invitations in the Labour and Express Entry streams. The province states that current selection prioritizes skilled workers in higher-demand sectors including healthcare, trades, manufacturing and other key industries facing labour shortages.

Why this matters

PEI manages invitation volumes and frequency according to federal allocations, application volumes and provincial labour-market needs.

What applicants should know

An Expression of Interest is not an immigration application and an invitation is not permanent residence approval. Candidates should verify current PEI program criteria before taking action.
