If you are above 35, than you will be given points but not much as compared to 18-35 years group age. Maximum age allowed in Express program is 45 years but if you have reached 45 years you can still apply for Provincial Nominee Program (PNP).

Provincial Nominee Program (PNP):

Every Province in Canada has their own specific requirements for allowing an immigrant to live and work for example for Ontario there is a grid of 400 points while Saskatchewan has a score grid of 40 points out of 100 points. If a Province has nominated you under their Express stream, then you have to update it in your Express profile in order to get extra point in the ranking system. For confirming your PNP follow these steps:

  1. In your Express profile go to “application details” and then select “nomination and selection”.
  2. Where it is asking for a Canada PNP Express Entry nomination, check “yes”.
  3. Select the Province or territory that has nominated you. Update your profile.
  4. Provide your Job Seeker Validation Code and Express Entry Profile number to your selected province.

Nomination obtained through the traditional paper-based process known as base nominations, will not be processed through Canada Express Entry program. Some questions related to PNP asked are as follows:

Does Notification of Interest (NOI) counts as Nomination?

If you are given a Notification of Interest (NOI) by any province that will not be counted as Nomination for your Express profile. NOI are not counted in Canada Express Entry Program.
