British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP)

British Columbia, Canada’s westernmost province, is a hub of cultural diversity and economic growth. British Columbia’s Provincial Nominee Program is one of the diverse programs. Applicants with the required education and experience in the required field may get a British Columbia Provincial Nomination, which will enable that foreign national to apply for Canadian Permanent Residency

The BC PNP accepts applications under two main immigration streams:

These streams are additionally separated into classes. Beneath we give you extra data about each to enable you to decide whether the BC PNP is directly for you.
