What is a good score for BC PNP?
British Columbia selects high-scoring individuals by giving invitations to them through the BC PNP draw who have applied under each category of the PNP, allowing them to live and work permanently in the province. Candidates who receive a provincial nomination can apply to Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada for permanent residence visas (IRCC).
