We know that Nova Scotia has nominated 1,350 immigrants under the Provincial Nominee Program in 2015. So we can expect this number to be kept, or if things are good.. increase
Another good news is that most prospective immigrants to Nova Scotia are able to apply to immigrate through a new online system.
Hopefully it will expedite the processing... no more waiting for 3, or 6.. months.
