Nova Scotia Immigration Draw Invites Auditors and Accountants!
April 21, 2021
|
In the latest Labour Market Priorities Stream draw, Express Entry applicants who are auditors and accountants were prioritized. Those who scored between 400 to 600 points on their CRS score were given Invitations to Apply (ITAs) on 24 January, 2019. Those who have work experience in these two occupations were given preference in the draw. The Labour Market Priorities Stream (LMPS) was launched in 2018 to help the province of Nova Scotia find applicants that it needs in its labour market. The stream finds potential applicants from the Express Entry pool who have both the right occupation and work experience to qualify. When it finds the right candidates, it can send applicants an ITA (Invitation to Apply) for permanent residency in the province.
