What is the NWT Nominee Program?

The NTNP is an immigration program operated on behalf of the Government of the NWT with Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) to fast-track the processing of an application for permanent residence.  The NWT Nominee Program (NTNP) helps strengthen the NWT economy by attracting qualified individuals to fill critical labour shortages and promote business development. The NTNP can assist employers in recruiting and retaining foreign workers and can help foreign workers and their families make NWT their permanent home.
