The provincial nomination serves as a guarantee in selection to the Canada Express Entry System, and also gives 600 CRS points.
The Program also publishes the scores which the immigrants need to get an invitation for Canada immigration. This score for an international graduate is 30 points lower than a skilled worker for the Canada Express Entry as well as the provincial stream. It is lower again for semi-skilled and entry-level workers.
