Newfoundland and Labrador conducted a modest immigration draw on November 4, 2026, issuing just 25 Invitations to Apply (ITA). This represents the smallest round of selections for the province so far this year.
Of the total invitations issued, 24 were distributed under the Newfoundland and Labrador Provincial Nominee Program (NLPNP), while one invitation was processed through the Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP).
Despite the low volume of invitations in this specific draw, the province continues to utilize these programs to address targeted labor market needs. The draw remains a small, focused effort to welcome new immigrants to the region.
