Northwest Territories Nominee Program closes 2025 intake after reaching federal allocation cap

The Northwest Territories Nominee Program has officially closed its 2025 intake after receiving sufficient applications to meet the federal nomination cap of 300 candidates. Prospective applicants will receive email notifications regarding whether their submissions will proceed to assessment or be withdrawn. The program is scheduled to reopen in 2026, with further details to be announced. Employers seeking to fill workforce gaps can explore alternative pathways, including the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and the Francophone Mobility Program. Meanwhile, the Business Stream remains open for new applications despite the closure of the Employer-Driven and Francophone streams.
