Canadian provinces have been organizing draws regularly in 2021 in order to meet the higher immigration targets. British Columbia has been highly proactive when it comes to inviting skilled candidates into the province who will be able to meet the labor demands of the market.

On June 1, British Columbia held a PNP draw via the Tech Pilot program to invite a total of 68 candidates. Now, the province has successfully issued 4,876 invitations via the Provincial Nominee Program or PNP this year alone.

After being extended multiple times, this pilot is set to become a permanent program under British Columbia PNP.
