British Columbia continues to focus on economic growth by drawing ambitious entrepreneurs from across the globe.

With a mix of urban and rural opportunities, British Columbia remains a prime destination for international entrepreneurs.

British Columbia PNP Draw – May 28 Results

The recent draw issued:

• A total of 9 invitations with a minimum score of 115 through the EI Base stream
• <5 invitations with a minimum score of 123 through the EI Regional stream

The EI Regional stream continues its monthly draws for candidates referred by B.C. communities, focusing on small towns and less populated areas. This pathway offers a chance to start or purchase businesses aligned with local economic needs.

Meanwhile, the EI Base stream focuses on a broader pool of candidates. But this round also used targeted invitations. Instead of relying on scores alone, selection considered several strategic factors:

• Applicant’s registration score
• Proposed region and population size
• Whether the business is a new start-up or an acquisition
• Alignment with priority sectors

This approach ensures that invitations are issued where the province sees real potential for economic benefit.
