Why Canada needs Indian nurses now

Canada's healthcare system is projected to face a shortage of 117,600 nurses by 2030. Provinces like Ontario, British Columbia, and Alberta are actively recruiting internationally trained nurses. The Federal government has created dedicated Express Entry healthcare draws specifically to fast-track nurses, care aides, and healthcare professionals to permanent residency.

  • Healthcare draw CRS cut-offs: often 30–80 pts BELOW general draws
  • NOC 31301 (Registered Nurse) — top priority occupation
  • Work in Canada on open work permit while PR processes
  • Provincial streams in Ontario, BC, Alberta target nurses specifically
  • Family can accompany on open work permit (spouse) + study permit (children)
