BC PNP March 2015

[geraff90]

I applied on 31st March. Still waiting.. I need a favor, I started working Dec 15th 2014 under noc c. Promoted to noc b on 1st April. If I receive approval approval terms March 31 then I will be able to apply under express entry or not ? As it will be one year of experience under noc b.

Is that express entry for P.R yeah I think so you just need to do an English test with CELPIT I think its called

I heard from one source that semi skilled is processing faster then skilled, dont know why..but as I noticed two of my friends semi skilled jan and march 2015 already got nominations in dec and jan

Hopefully it will be our turn soon as possible...because it's taking too long... :-\ :-\

I think thats because theres less people in the semi skilled category that in the skilled category..... But I also heard from a source not sure if its true in 2014 the BC PNP were processing 440 files a month .... I also have a Question if any yous could tell me I had to leave the country because my visa expired once I get approve can I get my work permit in the airport or do you have to go to the border

Once you get nomination you can go on the border with bcpnp support letter and they'll give you new wp

I think there just automatic emails they send response to peoples emails but still an bc pnp officer would still have to read your email and if you mention that your work permit is expiring soon it should bring it to there attention how long is your application bring in for

best of luck

I went to BC PNP office today, and I talked to an officer about my application.
There is no officer is assigned to my application yet, so only thing i can do right now, it's wait.

Did you tell them that your work permit is expiring in 20 days

 

[innocentman]

Unfortunately they dont care about it, you have to take care about your status..

You have to apply for new work permit and visitor in same time, then you'll be on implied status from aprox 100 days(you can working during that time) till you got an answer from cic

Hey
Is that anybody know i am still able to convert my existing bc pnp to BCpnp EE profile because i applied my file in July under NOC A category under International graduate category and i started working full time from jan 2015 and I think i am eligible for CEC Category after one year experience in express entry.
But on PNP website it written i can not convert my existing application application to EEBC.
Is that right? or I can apply under EEBC category.
IS some one has any clue?
thanks

I have applied on March 03rd and I didn't hear anything from PNP.... they didn't even finish December 2014 wait few more months then we'll get something .... If you have applied PNP in Express Entry you will be automatically in Express Entry for Federal Application (PR Application) If you have applied regular PNP then even you have submitted IELTS they will not convert your file to EE... you have to apply through normal paper file... from January 2016 they will not allow anyone to change their normal file to EE....
They said on their website:

"Effective January 1, 2016, BC PNP Skills Immigration applicants will no longer be able to convert an existing application to an EEBC category."

thx

"Effective January 1, 2016, BC PNP Skills Immigration applicantsI know that u can't covert file to EE. But I think after you cn nomination you get 600 points and then u cn apply under express entry. .iisn't it like that? ?

Nope it doesn't work like that... If you have applied in normal PNP they will specialy write on your nomination certificate that " This nomination cannot be used to apply PR under EE". If you have applied PNP under BC PNP Express Entry then you will get 600 points..
