The key highlights of the BC PNP Draw

The Express Entry BC (EEBC) selects applicants from the Express Entry system; skilled immigrants use this pathway. To be considered in this category, the applicant should also be registered in the B.C.'s Skills Immigration Registration System (SIRS). On being selected, an extra 600 bonus point requirement is fulfilled in the federal selection category.
The Skilled Immigration category is for the skilled and semi-skilled workers; here, the occupations which are in high demand in B.C. are considered. The Skilled Immigration category applicants need to be registered only in B.C.'s Skills Immigration Registration System (SIRS).
The minimum EOI required for this draw was set between 75 and 94 points in both EEBC and S.I. categories.
For the BC PNP, the applicants should have a full-time job offer from an employer in British Columbia who will extend his support through the application process.
