The two Provincial Nominee Program draws were held on September 28th which allowed B.C to invite 422 candidates.
British Columbia holds draws twice every month. This is because there are a lot of candidates credentialed by the British Columbia PNP Skills Immigration Register System. These candidates are also eligible for any skilled job required by the province’s labour market needs. In fact, BC has been holding bonus draws to bridge the employment gap in the province.
B.C Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) divides into two streams: Express Entry and Skills Immigration. Only the candidates who are eligible for these two streams can receive an invitation in the draw.
The score requirement range was between 69 to 90 points. In which 386 candidates were called for.
An occupation-specific draw was also held under these streams and only candidates who are skilled in NOC 0621 or NOC 0631. As a result, 36 invitations were issued to candidates who had scores above 105.
Since 2021, 9,083 invitations have been sent through different BC PNP streams to immigrate to Canada.
