NB PNP Skilled Worker Stream Processing Timelines

[DS14]

Your title says Skilled Worker stream, not EE stream which are two different pathways. You wait for an EE draw and hope your NOC and score are selected with your job offer. EE is not a first come, first serve stream.

NBPNP Skilled Worker (6 months have to be in NB) - My EOI is under this
NB Express Entry (1 yr in NB) - Right now I am not eligible for this as I didn't finish 1 yr in NB
AIP - My employer has to submit and as that pathway is paused now need to wait till it opens.

So, ideally all the above are applicable for me - just that option 1 is applicable now and 2 & 3 are when I meet the criteria and when the program opens again.

Okay. As per the link, option 1 has only had construction and healthcare draws as of late.

8 people were invited and it was Francophones in all sectors so unless Francophone then no invite.

Thank you, they mentioned Francophone, All Sectors - was bit confused .
Any idea when the AIP will be opened for NB.
And also recently PNP quota increased for all Provinces we can expect more draws in 2026?

No idea if and when AIP will be open. May be more draws but provinces have a backlog which may be counted for new quotas. Provinces may focus on specific NOCs, sectors etc. so will have to wait until draws.
