The Canadian province of British Columbia conducted another round of draws on 23 July, inviting over 108 candidates. The invited candidates can apply to different streams, for which they qualify. If their application is approved, they may be issued a provincial nomination certificate.
Since British Columbia usually conducts draws on Wednesday, and there’s still a week left for the month to be over, we may predict that the next BC PNP draw should be on 30th July 2024.
