Invitations issued in 2026

Compared to the last two selection rounds that occurred in 2026, the most recent one is the smallest—445 invitations were issued on March 6; 245 on March 30.

To date, the province has sent out 900 invitations across the NLPNP and the AIP. Here’s how it breaks down per program:

  • NLPNP: 748 invitations.
  • AIP: 152 invitations.

This year, Newfoundland and Labrador issued more invitations across both programs within the same period (January to April) than it did last year (256 in 2025 compared to 900 in 2026).

How to be considered through the NLPNP or AIP

Both the NLPNP and the province’s AIP have utilized an Expression of Interest (EOI) model since February 2025. All candidates must submit an EOI to be considered.
