Express Entry BC: Candidates who apply for the BC PNP through the Express Entry BC stream must have an express entry profile. In addition, they must register themselves with the Skills Immigration Registration System. Skills Immigration: candidates who are applying to the PNP under the Skills Immigration stream do not need to have a mandatory express entry profile. They only have to register with the SIRS of the province. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the province has ruled out some of the occupations. Candidates can look at the list of excluded occupations on the province’s webpage.
