How the 600 PNP points work

A provincial or territorial nomination issued through an enhanced Express Entry stream adds 600 points to your CRS score. Because the maximum without it is 670, a nominee almost always ranks above everyone else and is invited in the next PNP round.

Provinces run their own points grids and draws to pick candidates from the federal pool. Each province publishes its own criteria; check the official provincial program page for the stream you target.
