Skills Immigration– Application Intake
The Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) is accepting a limited number of applications for in-demand jobs under the Skills Immigration stream effective November 10, 2015.

The BC PNP was redesigned in July this year to make a targeted shift towards attracting high-impact workers and entrepreneurs that align with B.C.'s labour market and economic development priorities. This intake is focussed specifically on attracting applicants who are in high-wage occupations and meet those priorities.

Application intake will be limited to 50 applications in the Skills Immigration stream.

Applications are invited for occupations that offer wages over $100,000 a year. Examples could include senior construction, transportation, manufacturing and engineering managers, industrial and electrical engineers, as well as specialized software developers or technology professionals.

The BC PNP continues to process applications already in the inventory. The addition of 50 applications will not impact the processing times of existing applications.

The Entrepreneur Immigration stream will continue to accept registrations for prospective applicants, up to a maximum of 200 per month.

As well, no changes have been made to the following categories and applications will continue to be accepted in:

Health Care Professional - Skills Immigration
Health Care Professional - Express Entry BC
Northeast Pilot Project
Please note that interested employers or authorized representatives must contact the BC PNP for application information at: PNPPriority@gov.bc.ca.

B.C. continues to work with the federal government to increase the allocation of provincial nominations for B.C. in 2016.
