How Does British Columbia PNP Work?
The British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) allows the province to nominate individuals for permanent residency based on their skills and ability to contribute to the local economy. Candidates typically apply through various streams, including skilled workers, international graduates, and entry-level workers. The province evaluates applications based on factors such as work experience, education, and job offers from BC employers. Successful nominees receive an invitation to apply for permanent residency through the federal immigration system.
