Funny thing, but I haven't heard of anyone who was nominated through their online system. If I'm wrong, please, correct me, dear friends. All I see, is that they chose people from the pool, and AFTER these happy people create accounts in INGB.
I'm glad for everyone who got lucky, but the province's attitude sometimes make me sad. Chasing them all over the world for 1,5 years to get connection, got it, applied, and still they ignore me completely.
Sorry for complaining
The NBPNP online system has only been operational since 23rd September 2019, so I don't see how anyone would get "nominated through the online system" this quickly. Their usual processing times after a full application submission is 6-8 weeks (going by the previous paper-based system). Certainly the application processing will (hopefully) speed up eventually, but it's rather overly optimistic to hope that you would a nomination within, say, a week of submitting your full application.
Also, please note, NBPNP has only since this year started to send candidates direct NOIs to apply for NBPNP. Before that the only way to get a nomination was to have some sort of connection to the province. Those conditions still apply, it's just that a direct NOI from NBPNP is now part of that list. So you can create a profile on their new online system but you can't submit an EOI unless you have some connection to them (e.g. direct invite, information session, relative, job offer, etc.)

Could you anyone please tell me if you get an email when you get NOI from NB? Or do you check your profiles daily?
I am confused after reading recent posts here. Do we need to create INB profile if we have attended information session recently? Also, I heard some people getting ITA or NOI after attending information session. I attended one very recently. I haven't received anything.No, not online, friend, they hold these info sessions and job fairs around the world, this particular one was in Kiev, it was closest location to me, so I went there.
Here is the list of upcoming sessions.

I'm not sure if Information Sessions are giving the connection to the province right now. However when I visited it last year, the immigration office assured me that the event gave me the connection. It's valid for 2 years.
Registration in INB system here https://inb.gnb.ca is impossible without connection, so I still hope it all is working
Hope I've been helpful.
Well, you know, in 2017-2018 it looked like this: in case you want to immigrate to NB, have a target NOC and have no other connections to the province, you attend an information session, that gives you a connection. Then you wait for NB to open a "window", and apply online for them to consider your application. This opportunity opened 2-3 times a year only. Since May 2018 they never opened a new "window" to apply, but in September 2019 NB launched a new INGB portal, that accepts registration only if you meet their requirements (including connection).
Honestly speaking, if you obtained a connection on information session and have IELTS and ECA ready and intend to live in NB, I encourage you to register in INGB. I do believe there's no harm in this
Otherwise I don't know how they are going to understand from the EE pool, if you attended session or not.Thanks a ton. does INB profile allows to add an information session as a connection?Well, you know, in 2017-2018 it looked like this: in case you want to immigrate to NB, have a target NOC and have no other connections to the province, you attend an information session, that gives you a connection.

Also, when I asked immigration officers whether I can use information session as a connection, they weren't sure about that. So, I believed they Dont consider information session as a connection anymore.
Yes, I heard the same from other people, who attended recent info sessions, that they are no longer considered as connections! That's frustrating a bit, because when I attended session on 2018, I was told by officer, that it's considered as a connection. But they didn't give any opportunity to apply for me and other people who attended those sessions, till this INGB was launched.
So, I still hope it will be OK somehow. Answering your question - when you register, the system asks you if you have a connection to the province, and there you can chose "attending am info session". I entered date and place of info session I attended, and registration was successful.
