IRCC Portal: Provinces and territories

The IRCC PT-Portal allows provinces and territories to access and nominate candidates in Express Entry system through their Provincial Nominee Programs to meet local labour market needs. IRCC requires the use of an electronic credential to use the IRCC Portal: GCKey or Sign-In Partner (SecureKey Concierge).

This online service will be unavailable from 12:00 a.m. to 5:30 a.m. Wednesday April 6, 2022 Eastern time, in order to perform system maintenance.

Online applications: After we receive your application, it may take up to 5 days for you to see it in your account. We are working to make this wait time shorter. If your application does not appear after 5 days, contact us and report a technical problem. This issue will not delay processing of your application.
