PASS Pre-arrival Supports and Services
The Pre-Arrival Supports and Services Program (PASS) is a pre-arrival program funded by the Government of Canada.
The PASS pre-arrival program is for Internationally Educated Nurses (IENs) in their countries of residence who have been approved for immigration to Canada.
There is no cost for PASS services. IENs must have proof of graduation from a nursing school and a letter of immigration confirmation from the Government of Canada.
