BC PNP Tech Pilot (Sharing my processing time)

Hello,

I finished my Bachelors of Engineering 7 months ago and am eligible for BC PNP Tech Pilot. My NOC is 2171. I just got my provincial nomination too. The nomination certificate does not mention anything about Tech Pilot, moreover it says I cannot use this nomination for Express Entry and need to apply through the paper based system.

So my questions are:

1. How long will paper based processing take? Is it the same as other Skills Immigration International Graduate stream even though I qualify for BC Tech Pilot?

2. Is it a better option to wait for 5 more months to gain 1 year of work experience and then apply through EE?

Thanks,

Shakil

Here is my timeline experience with BC PNP TechPilot NOC: 2172
It makes people anxious while waiting so I want to share my timeline for those of you that are still waiting.
Hope it helps!

I applied for two BC PNP because I mistakenly applied to the wrong one and did not realize it until I got nominated so I reapplied again.

My score for PNP application is 106 and I am an inland applicant

The first one I applied was the Skill Immigration - International Graduate (Not through Express Entry)
File Registration: July 17 2018
ITA : July 18 2018 (Tech Draw)
Submitted application: July 19 2018
Status change to IP: July 24th
Nominated: July 24th

Then I realized I could ONLY apply through paper base for my PR in the Federal application which it takes too long so I decided to apply to the PC PNP EE

EEBC - International Graduate
File Registration: July 24th
ITA: July 25th
Submitted application: July 25th
Status change to IP: August 1st (got a phone call from my case review officer and asking me to submitted another copy of employment contract since I missed a signature on there)
Submitted the additional document: August 2nd
Nominated: August 8th
Got my 600 points after a few mins of accepting my nomination on my Express Entry profile.

My CRS was 440 before nomination and now is sitting at 1040.

Feel free to ask me questions if you can't find a answer on the BC PNP website, it is very confusing sometimes, I totally understand because I have been there!
Do we require job offer from BC Employer to be eligible for PNP?
Also what does Techpilot signify

Hi !
I am an international graduate and have a job offer in one of the tech pilot NOCs. Couple of quetions:
1) Do I need any experience ? ( Without experience I don't surpass the 90 cutoff score so I'm guessing I do )
2) Should I go for EEBC or SI ?
Thanks in advance !
