On September 29, 2020, the provincial nominee program of British Columbia (BC PNP) has invited 450 candidates to apply for a provincial nomination. If approved, a BC PNP nominee will be allowed to apply for Canadian permanent residence.
In order to receive an invitation through the Express Entry British Colombia (EEBC), candidates must be registered under both the federal Express Entry system and B.C.’s Skills Immigration Registration System (SIRS).
Only candidates with competitive profiles and who rank highly will receive invitations to apply.
Candidates who receive a provincial nomination earn an additional 600 Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points which virtually guarantees that they will receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence under IRCC’s Express Entry system.
