Yukon Community Pilot Program

Yukon Community Pilot (YCP)

The Yukon Community Pilot (YCP) is a federal–territorial permanent resident stream with a work permit component. The Pilot was opened by the Government of Yukon, in January 2020. The goal of this pilot is to attract and retain immigrants in Yukon communities by testing innovative approaches to permanent immigration.

A person who has a valid nomination from the Yukon for permanent residence and 2 or 3 job offers from up to 3 employers based in a participating Yukon Territory community may be issued a location-specific open work permit without requiring a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA).

The Yukon Community Pilot (YCP) is a new stream of the Yukon Nominee Program. The YCP launched in 2020 and will run for 3 years.
