How to Qualify for a British Columbia PNP?
Skilled employees can get the opportunity to become permanent residents through this program, and it allows employers to find talented candidates that fit their business needs and those who are in short supply of talent in their own province.
Since this program is for international students and workers in the tech field, the candidate should have a job valid for 12 months or have at least 120 days left while applying for the program. The offer letter should be from a legal employer from the province, and the occupation should be under any one of the eligible streams to fulfill the program’s requirements.
Those candidates who have the highest score and who meet the eligibility criteria will be sent an invitation to apply for the program. Once the applications are submitted, it will take two to three months to process them.
