On the other hand, if you did not receive an invitation, your profile will remain active in the pool of candidates. You can anticipate receiving an invitation in the next BC PNP draw. BC PNP draws are held every week, usually on a Wednesday. The next BC PNP draw is expected to be conducted on April 24, 2024.
BC PNP Draws
The British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) holds draws every week, typically on Wednesdays. The program currently extends invitations under two immigration streams:
- Skills Immigration
- Entrepreneur Immigration
Once confirmed, you’ll need to create an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile and provide accurate details about your education, work experience, and language skills in BC’s assessment grid, also known as the BC PNP points calculator. If your EOI is selected, you’ll receive a provincial nomination certificate from BC PNP in the next BC PNP draw.
BC PNP draws are conducted every week, typically on a Wednesday. The streams to be targeted, minimum score, and number of invitations are not published beforehand.
Currently, 80% of applications under the BC PNP are processed within 12-15 months.
