Applying from Canada PR from USA

[BharathR8]

Hi,

This is Bharath, a 29 y/o Indian male currently living in Dallas, TX. Residing on H1-B - My max-out being April, 2027, my PERM application is yet to be filed. I am considering applying for a Canada PR and looking into the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). I am having 5 years of foreign work experience with a Master's degree. My current CRS score is 475 on 1200 for the FSW program. What are my options for a PNP, like what are the provinces that I can be nominated for and how long would it take to receive an ITA?

Score is too low for Express Entry, so you need a job offer with an eligible employer and your NOC and PNP score for the province you have a job offer. Without a job offer then only option is Ontario - Human Capital stream but there hasn't been an IT draw since March 2024 and score may not be high enough. If you want ITA then become fluent in French as that is the only real option.
