Hello Everyone, Asking for a friend.

My friend is working with health authority but as a casual employee with more than 30 hours per week. For BC PNP- it is required one to have Indefinite job offer (i.e. no end date) and full time work ( which is being described as on an average 30 regular hours a week, year-round). The question is even being a Casual employee, can my friend apply under BC PNP? Your guidance is much appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

You are only eligible to apply for BC PNP if you have a permanent job offer with minimum of 30 hours per week. Casual or Temporary employment is not eligible to apply for BC PNP Health Authority even if working more than 30 hours.

Thank you!

By looking at BC PNP guide, looks like there are two requirement- Indeterminate job offer( no end date)+ Full time employment (least an average of 30 hours per week, year-round). So I don't understand what makes an casual employee not eligible if both requirement per the guide is met.

The hours needs to be guaranteed on your job offer. If your job offer is indeterminate and you have at least 30 hours weekly guaranteed on your job offer, only then you are eligible.

Yes, that is my question and I think you got it :). So if the employer clearly states on offer letter about the number of hours per week but also state casual employee then a person can apply under BC PNP. Do you think my reasoning is correct? appreciate your response and critical thinking on this matter.

I understand what you are trying to say but if your employer guarantees 30 hours on your job offer then you are no longer casual according to BCPNP. Your guaranteed 30 hours makes you full-time according to BCPNP given that the number of hours should be no less than 30. A range of hours like 0-37.5 is also not acceptable.

Can Anyone Help me with this?
I have an ECA Certificate from ICAS mentioned equivalency- COLLEGE DIPLOMA(THREE YEARS)
I want to apply for BC PNP but I am confused whether I need to choose post secondary diploma or Bachelors degree? as per CRS and FSWP, they accept College Diploma three years as a bachelor degree and give same points. But in BC PNP, there is nothing mentioned on BC PNP website about it. But on Canada.ca, it is mentioned that College Diploma three years is equivalent to Bachelors degree. Please help me to choose the best option. Thanks in advance.
