2019-09-16 – Nova Scotia immigration has launched a new
Express Entry-linked Labour Market Priorities for Physicians
stream.
The new
Nova Scotia Nominee Program stream allows the province to
select candidates who are qualified doctors from the federal
Express Entry pool.
The stream specifically targets two National Occupational
Classification (NOC) codes:
- NOC 3112: Family Physicians
- NOC 3111: Specialist Physicians
Candidates must have an approved job offer from Nova Scotia
Health Authority or the IWK Health Centre in order to receive a
Letter of Interest from the NSNP.
The new stream compliments the
existing Physicians stream, which is not linked to Express
Entry.
