North Bay declares designated employers for the rural pathway to permanent residence.
The city is located in Northeastern Ontario. Its Rural Community Immigration Pilot (RCIP) boundary includes the census division of the Nipissing District, the Parry Sound District, and the Town of Latchford.
The RCIP is an employer-driven immigration pilot that gives foreign workers with job offers from designated employers in selected communities a pathway to Canada PR.
North Bay is one of the 14 communities participating in the pilot.

Who Can Apply For The North Bay RCIP?
Apart from having a job offer from one of the above-mentioned employers in the region, foreign nationals will need to meet other criteria in order to qualify for the RCIP.
The job offer must be in an occupation that is under the region’s priority occupation list.
Applicants must also meet requirements regarding education, work experience, language proficiency, and settlement funds.
Before applying for PR, a qualifying applicant must get a community recommendation. For this step, their employer must submit an application for community recommendation during a monthly intake period.
These periods are generally during the last week of the month for the North Bay RCIP.
If a community recommendation application is approved, a foreign national will receive a recommendation certificate that allows them to apply to IRCC for PR.
Applicants can also apply for a work permit while IRCC is processing their PR application.
