Hello everyone,

I hope you guys are well.

If you guys get any updates on your file please post here, then that way everyone gets an idea what's going on with the BC PNP applications.

I'm just letting you guys know that I submitted my application to the BC PNP on November 10, 2016. It's been over four months, but so far no update on my file.

I phoned them three times since they received my application, but they were kept saying that the processing time takes more than what has been posted on the BC PNP website.

Thanks!

Hi there, Every BC PNP applicant must read!

I would like to let you guys know one thing, BC PNP is holding 20% of applications (20% applications are people who apply through consultancy)

I just came to know that people who apply by their own are getting nomination sooner than who apply through consultancy.

In fact, me and four of my friends graduated from the same university, registered for BC PNP, got invited and submitted application on the same date, but among five, three have applied by their own and got the nomination with in a month. two of us (including me) applied though consultancy in November (over four months) still no response from BC PNP.

So sad

Holy smoke! It's been 130 days (over 4 months) since the BC PNP received my application. I called them 6 times so far, since two months they were kept saying that my application is under active review which is completely unbelievable.

At least if they refuse it, I'll find an alternate way to apply for PR, but it seems like they held off my application. I don't know what to do?

They are just taking too much time without making any decision on it. Substandard!!

Is anyone waiting for BC PNP since 4 months?

New updates for 2017 on BC PNP Website

The federal government allocates the number of nominations (principal applicants, excluding dependent family) available to the BC PNP each year. For 2017, B.C.’s quota is 6,000 nominations. The BC PNP has always used the full nomination allocation and intends to maximize the quota again this year.

The BC PNP will not refund application fees where a review of the application has commenced. Processing time 2-3 months

Once you have submitted a complete application. These processing times are based on 80% of cases and are subject to change according to program capacity.
