For EE, you do not get points for living outside Vancouver. Where does it say that? Or are you applying for BC PNP?

Oh yes you are right. Location points is only under bc PNP. If my profession is in teer 4, will be a good idea to file bc pnp ?
Please advise

You need to read through the requirements and figure out what program you are eligible for. Usually you get points for the employer being in a rural area but again you need to do your own research to verify.

Hi

I have a question if we have a full time offer with the 2 job profile but the company is not LMIa, will I get 50 points?

Referencing to 8) Do you have a valid job offer supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment (if needed)?

Thanks

What kind of work permit are you on? How long have you been working for this specific employer in Canada?

No points in that case. You would only get the 50 points if your employer gets an approved LMIA.
