Canada’s provincial immigration landscape has undergone dramatic changes throughout 2025, leaving Immigration consultants scrambling to adapt. The federal Government’s fluctuating allocation of Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) spots has created uncertainty for applicants and Immigration consultants alike. Provinces such as Ontario and British Columbia saw early-year increases in nominations. At the same time, Alberta and Manitoba experienced mid-year cuts, forcing Immigration consultants to revise strategies on the fly.
These unpredictable shifts have made it harder for Immigration consultants to provide reliable guidance, especially as provinces adjusted their selection criteria and targeted occupations. As a result, Immigration consultants are urging the federal Government to improve transparency and coordination to stabilize future planning.
