Settlement Plan

After the candidate gets a job offer from a designated employer, they need to get a settlement plan.

A settlement plan will help them, and their family adjust to their new home in Atlantic Canada.

Get their Certificate of Endorsement

After candidates have their settlement plan, the province must endorse their job offer. The employer will handle this process. The candidates can’t submit their permanent residence application until they confirm with the employers that their offer has been endorsed. If the province endorses their job offer, they will receive a Certificate of Endorsement.

Apply for a temporary work permit

If they applied for permanent residence under the Atlantic Immigration Pilot, they may be eligible for a 1-year work permit. The work permit lets them work while their permanent residence application is being processed.
