Provincial or territorial service · Immigration, citizenship and travel

Compiled by Mahmoud Halat, checked 12 October 2026. Not a government website. The official page always has the final word.

## Short answer

Provinces and territories nominate immigrants for permanent residence through their own programs. Québec selects its own immigrants.

Each province and territory runs its own. Find yours in the table below.
