On November 20, the most recent BC Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) draw was held, and through targeted selection processes, about 15 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) for permanent residency were sent out.
In a draw that targeted 35 tech-related jobs under the skilled worker and international graduate streams, including their Express Entry variations, four ITAs were granted. In contrast to the previous BC PNP Tech draw, the cut-off score for this category increased by a noteworthy 13 points.
Candidates with prior early childhood education or assistant experience received three more invites (NOC 42202).
4Â invitations were sent to profiles that matched 39 occupations related to healthcare in the healthcare category.
Last, in late 2023, British Columbia launched its newest category-based draw, inviting four applicants with experience in 25 construction-related occupations.
This draw demonstrates BC’s ongoing emphasis on meeting labor market demands in vital industries.
