Should not matter. Once you're a Permanent Resident, you can be anywhere in Canada. Your way of application for Permanent Residency doesn't matter. If you look at the Citizenship Application, there is no requirement to be in the same Province if you had a nomination. Just look at the application requirements, and you should be fine.

I have been exploring in the forum and i have not seen anybody had issues getting citizenship as PNP PR. If you see Vancouver, many many people were here from PNP and all holding Canadian passport now.

Once you have PR, I don’t think there would be any issues getting citizen no matter which PNP or apply at anyplace. Many of my friend took advantage of coming to Canada by different PNP like Manitoba, PEI and QC, and they moved to Vancouver right away after getting PR. And they are now all holding Canadian passport.

@kushari .... thanks so much. Do you know of anyone who has succeeded who had the same situation?
Not personally, but PR is PR, doesn't matter which program you went through to obtain it. Once you have it, the way you obtained it, is a thing of the past. Once you're a PR, you can live anywhere in Canada, you have no restrictions. The only things you can't do is vote, and have citizenship/passport until you're a citizen.

Speaking from experience. I received my nomination and PR in NS and moved to Quebec 6 months later. There were mixed reviews but the IRCC officer that interviewed me for PR said that I need to remain in NS for at least 6 months (after getting PR) before moving. I applied for citizenship in December 2018 and now waiting on my oath invite. I should mention that I did live and go to school in NS since 2008.

Thanks for the insight...I came on AIPP, and I wanted to be sure. I wrote to the province about it and they said since they only endorsed me and not nominate me, it was between me and my employer, the province is not part of it. The lady even wrote me an email as written proof for future use, and told me I could move if I wanted to. Thanks guys for giving me good information

There's no such requirement. Once you're a PR, you can move at any time. I'd stick to the official requirements. Once you're a PR, doesn't matter where you reside in Canada.

Hey, i Moved out after 10-15 days from the province that nominated me and next week is my oath ceremony, it never came up anywhere about province change
@cheire May I know from which province you've got your PR, so you're all done now?
