Nova Scotia Nominee Program

Nova Scotia is a tiny Canadian province in the country's Maritimes area.

The Nova Scotia peninsula, Cape Breton Island, and over 3,000 smaller islands make up the province. Its capital city, Halifax, is well-known for being a significant cultural and artistic center, as well as having a good level of living. Nova Scotians are inextricably linked to the sea, and the province is known for its coastal beauty and delectable cuisine.

The Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP) is Nova Scotia's Provincial Nominee Program. Prospective immigrants with the skills and experience sought by the province may be eligible for a Nova Scotia Provincial Nomination Certificate through this program.
