New Brunswick’s NB Skilled Worker Stream

Eligibility Requirements for New Brunswick Skilled Worker

This stream provides a fantastic opportunity if you have already been staying and working or studying in the province. If you cannot fulfil all criteria under the federal Express system, the NB Skilled Worker program may help you get permanent resident status as this stream is not aligned with Express Entry.

You must fulfil specific requirements for every NB Skilled Worker Stream stage, including registration, application and nomination. You will need to meet multiple eligible criteria, such as age, language, job offer, work experience, education, etc., along with a score of a minimum of 60 points in the selection factors to be considered for nomination by GNB.

• Job Offer: You must have a permanent, full-time job offer from a recognized New Brunswick employer. The NOC TEER Category of the work experience must be equal to or greater than the NOC TEER Category of the job offer.
• Language Proficiency: Your language score in either English or French is equal to Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) 4.
• Level of Education: You must have a minimum of a high school diploma or an international diploma equivalent to the Canadian credential.
