The British Columbia PNP is an economic immigration program through which the BC government finds suitable and skilled immigrants via its immigration programs.

The British Columbia PNP enables the province to select and grant nominations to skilled foreign workers, entrepreneurs, and international students. These candidates satisfy the province’s labor market requirements. They also support the government’s priorities and help develop the province’s economy.

In the event of being granted nomination, you and your family members are enabled to apply for a Canada PR visa. That’s the process of becoming a Canada PR visa holder.
