British Columbia frequently chooses candidates for provincial nomination through draws conducted under the British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP). Candidates undergo ranking and assessment based on points accumulated using the BC PNP points calculator. These points are determined by factors such as Age, Education, Work Experience, Language Proficiency, Adaptability, and Spousal Sponsorship.
Pathway to Permanent Residency
Candidates with the highest scores receive provincial nominations, enabling them to apply for permanent residency visas through Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
