The latest BC PNP draw of the month on July 23 issued more than 108 invitations to apply (ITAs) for permanent residency (PR) in general and targeted rounds of invitations.
B.C. has been conducting the weekly draws consistently, we can say without any breaks, since the day we entered the immigration news arena.
However, a new trend has emerged recently as B.C. has started shrinking the number of invitations (less than half now) and increasing the cutoff score.
35 invitations have been sent to under the general draw considering all the profiles meeting minimimum score eligibility criteria.
The cutoff score remained the same as compared to the previous BC PNP general draw.
Furthermore, 37 invitations have been sent to profiles that have experience as early childhood educators’ assistants or instructors (NOC 42202).
19 profiles created with experience in 39 healthcare-related occupations received invitations to apply for permanent residency.
17 applicants with experience in 25 construction-related occupations were invited for British Columbia’s newest category-based draw, introduced in late 2023.
