Overview of Provincial Nominee Programs

Canada’s PNPs allow provinces and territories to nominate individuals who wish to immigrate to Canada and are interested in settling in a particular province. Each province has its own criteria and streams targeting students, business people, skilled workers, and semi-skilled workers.

British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP)

In January 2025, BC PNP will introduce new streams for international graduates:
1. Bachelor’s Stream: For recent graduates with indeterminate full-time job offers.
2. Master’s Stream: For graduates with at least a one-year full-time job offer in a skilled occupation.
3. Doctorate Stream: For doctoral-level graduates and candidates.

Additionally, BC PNP will raise the minimum language proficiency requirements across most streams. For more details, visit the BC PNP page.
