Occupational categories selected
- Construction

NB’s earlier entry for September 25 and October 2, 2026 did not list Health care, according to our research brief.
What “selected” means
NB says Immigration New Brunswick “selects complete applications in the Atlantic Immigration Program candidate pool for processing”. NB says selections are “based on provincial labour market needs, available allocation and other priorities determined by the Government of New Brunswick”.
This is a selection of applications. It is not a PNP invitation to apply.
Do not add this to the earlier total
October 2 appears in this entry (October 2, 9 and 29) and in the earlier entry (September 25 and October 2). NB does not explain the overlap or split either total. Do not add the two totals together to count unique selections.
