Yes the institute is listed on this site also but on the bc pnp official site it is written that masters from public institutes and on the bottom of that page program is there, in which it is written that public institutes and approved private institutions.

Health Care Professionals, Northeast Pilot Project and all Express Entry BC applications may now be submitted through BC PNP Online.

For all other Skills Immigration categories, the BC PNP will only accept up to 200 new applications in 2015. These applications are restricted as follows:
New applications within Metro Vancouver are restricted to employment offers above the B.C. median wage of $22.00 per hour.
For regions outside of Metro Vancouver, new applications will be accepted for all Skills Immigration categories, including Entry Level and Semi-Skilled occupations.
Once the 200 limit has been reached, new intake will be restricted to Express Entry BC, Health Care Professionals and Northeast Pilot Project applications.

I'm a little confused, can someone help me out please.

Do you have to make $22 an hour in Metro Vancouver if you are applying for Express Entry International Graduate. . Im confused because of the "For all other"
The way the guide is written is not explicit enough. Can anyone please clarify for me.

Much appreciated.

according to these phrase : express entry,health care, northeast pilot project are not included in 200. only post graduate , international graduate, and skilled immigrations.

yes and if you apply within metro Vancouver under 200 files means under post graduate , international graduate, and skilled immigrations. you salary should be more than $22 per hour, because bc pnp restricted it to $22 per hour.

Express Entry, Health Care Professionals, Northeast Pilot streams
No changes have been made to these categories and all remain open to new applications

thanks

I heard that this $22 wage law was only for normal PNP guys in ee they will continue to accept according to normal rules that were in place as earlier.... I think this is clearly partiality .... If u make new law enforce on everyone not only on particular or on a specific group.... What u think guys...

If u find it then it should be good... Or I think u should write an email to pnp guys they can tell u what they exactly want ....

The BC PNP makes no sense at all. If you look at the guide posted here http://www.welcomebc.ca/Immigrate/About-the-BC-PNP/About-the-BC-PNP/Documents.aspx it says the new minimum has to be $22/hour in order to apply.

Yet, at the very bottom of the guide where it talks about meeting minimum income requirements, the minimum for one person is ~$21,000. Which does NOT work out to $22/hr.

What about the Bc Exp. Entry applications?

 

[Sandeepmand13]

New updates on bcpnp

Health Care Professionals, Northeast Pilot Project and all Express Entry BC applications may now be submitted through BC PNP Online.
The BC PNP is not currently accepting applications in any other Skills Immigration categories.
The BC PNP continues to focus on processing applications from the inventory. Processing times for new applications will be based on operational capacity.
All applications submitted on or before March 31, 2015 will be assessed according the program criteria in place at the time of submission – BC PNP will not retroactively apply new criteria.
For more information on changes to program requirements or applications to the Skills Immigration stream, see our Program Requirements page.

 

[Sandeepmand13]

No more skills immigration.
Bad news for international graduate , post graduate ,skilled and semi skilled category.

 

[r_alapadan]

So were they accepting applications from semiskilled before..just stopped bcz they reached the 200 quota?

 

[Sandeepmand13]

Yes you are right
Very first day on July 2nd the quota was 200 and people were ready to submit files and that day they fulfill the 200 quota and very next day on July 3rd bc pnp updated that they are not accepting skilled immigration anymore
Thanks

 

[r_alapadan]

so april to june applications are having 16 months processing time. How about july.. any news?

 

[Sandeepmand13]

The thing is that north east pilot project processing time is 16 month is estimated time but they will process them before 16 month if we see their previous results. On the other hand skilled immigration categories taking longer than usual processing time.

So if you submitted your file in northeast you will get your result before estimated processing time.
Thanks
