Should I apply for BC PNP (SI) now or wait to apply for EE?

I got my ITA for BC PNP (Skills Immigration – International Graduate) today. If I go this route it would take 2-3 months for the nomination to be processed than another 16 months with CIC.

Based on the latest draw under EE, I would have sufficient point to get ITA without PNP if I have one year of work experience, that would be 6 months from now. Then EE application would take only 6 months. Isn't EE a much better option time wise then?

6 months is a long time... you never know what will change by then even though what they are dropping points down now. If you were say 2 months away i would say do it.. but thats a gamble you'll have to take.. if you look at this way you have 6 months remaining and it takes another 6 months approx depending on your case for them to process your PR so by then its almost a year.. in the case of a paper based file it takes say 19 months that is including your BC PNP nomination..

Remember what is there today won't be there tomorrow.

Rest other folks can also give in some input
