Northwest Territories Nominee Program
The territory provides employer-driven, Francophone and business information through its nominee program. Check current intake and stream-specific requirements directly. A move to Yellowknife should include a realistic employment and housing plan.
Plan a useful professional conversation
- Explain why Northwest Territories is your intended destination and describe any employer, study or family connection.
- Ask which current stream fits your circumstances, what must be verified and what the professional’s service includes.
- Confirm the professional’s regulator, authorization, language and service fees before signing an agreement.
