Newfoundland and Labrador issued 57 invitations to apply on November 9, 2026: 35 under the Newfoundland and Labrador Provincial Nominee Program (NLPNP) and 22 under the Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP), according to the province's invitations page, updated November 10. This is a routine invitation round, not a rule change. Its 22 AIP invitations are more than the province issued under the AIP in all four October rounds combined (12).
The November 9 round in context
Newfoundland and Labrador has kept up near-weekly rounds this autumn. The figures below are from the province's official invitations page (checked November 13, 2026):
| Date | NLPNP | AIP | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| November 9, 2026 | 35 | 22 | 57 |
| November 4, 2026 | 24 | 1 | 25 |
| November 2, 2026 | 50 | 0 | 50 |
| October 29, 2026 | 75 | 10 | 85 |
| October 23, 2026 | 120 | 0 | 120 |
| October 16, 2026 | 125 | 1 | 126 |
| October 9, 2026 | 130 | 1 | 131 |
What the numbers show
- October: 462 invitations across four rounds, 450 NLPNP and 12 AIP.
- November so far (to November 9): 132 invitations across three rounds, 109 NLPNP and 23 AIP.
- NLPNP rounds have been smaller in November than in October, while AIP invitations have picked up.
Who this affects
The round matters to candidates with an active Expression of Interest in Newfoundland and Labrador, in particular people with a job offer from a designated AIP employer in the province. An invitation lets a candidate apply to the province; it is not a nomination or an endorsement, and the province still assesses each application.
What it does not change
This round does not change the NLPNP or AIP eligibility rules. The province's page publishes counts by programme only, so the numbers do not tell you whether a particular profile will be invited in a future round.
What to do next
- Keep your Expression of Interest up to date, including job offer and work-experience details.
- If you hold a job offer from an Atlantic employer, check with the employer that it is designated for the AIP in Newfoundland and Labrador.
- Compare provincial options on our provincial nominee programs page, and see our post on the November 2 and 4 rounds.
Invitation volumes vary from round to round and processing times are estimates; no invitation or nomination is guaranteed. Official source: Newfoundland and Labrador ITA updates.
