Nova Scotia introduces a 12-month validity period for expressions of interest

Effective May 1, 2026, Nova Scotia will implement a 12-month validity period for all Expressions of Interest (EOI) to enhance inventory management and ensure alignment with current labour-market needs. Under the new measures, EOIs submitted before May 1, 2024, will be closed immediately on the effective date. Those submitted between May 1, 2024, and April 30, 2026, will remain active until April 30, 2027, unless selected sooner. For all new submissions moving forward, profiles will automatically expire after one year. Province officials clarified that an EOI expiry is not a refusal, and eligible candidates may resubmit a new profile at any time.
