For applicants asking about New Brunswick's Finance-related PNP stream, group members shared program mechanics rather than a guaranteed timeline:
- Outland applicants (those outside Canada) can apply to this stream — it's not restricted to applicants already in Canada.
- The application window has a hard deadline — in the cycle discussed, that deadline was March 31, after which the intake period was expected to reopen at a later, unspecified date.
- Response times are described as taking 'some time', with members referencing a roughly 12-month processing window for the stream overall — so patience was the general expectation rather than a fast turnaround.
Takeaway: confirm the current year's application window and deadline directly with New Brunswick's PNP page, since intake periods and deadlines shift annually, and plan for a multi-month wait for a response.
