Practical order
- 1
Review the current worker, entrepreneur and business pathways and record one B.C. stream for research without an eligibility verdict.
- 2
Prepare the job offer, employer support, applicant-selected occupation, wage, language, education, status, work, business or regional records named by the stream.
- 3
Create the applicant’s own BC PNP Online record and submit the registration or direct application required by the current stream.
- 4
If B.C. issues an invitation, verify its stream and deadline, submit the provincial package and pay the province directly.
- 5
Retain and check any nomination certificate for applicant, stream, destination, conditions and expiry.
- 6
Use the Express Entry or non-Express Entry route named by the nomination, submit to IRCC and complete federal admissibility and finalization.
It does not determine eligibility, predict a decision or submit anything for you.
