BC PNP calculator & eligibility checker

Check whether you meet the basic requirements for BC’s Skills Immigration stream, then estimate your SIRS registration score (out of 200) from the official scoring factors. Plain language, official sources, no account.

Step 1: Are you eligible to register?

Answer honestly — these are the hard gates. Points only matter if you pass them.

Do you have a signed job offer from a BC employer?

Must be full-time (30+ hrs/week), indeterminate (no end date), from an eligible BC employer.

What NOC TEER is the job’s occupation?

Only TEER 0–3 occupations qualify for Skills Immigration.

Do you have at least 2 years of full-time skilled work experience in the last 10 years?

Do you score CLB 4 or higher in all four language abilities?

Mandatory for TEER 2 and 3 job offers.

Are you qualified for the job, with any required BC licensing in hand or underway?

Step 2: Estimate your SIRS score

Work experience

Directly related work experience (same NOC as the job offer, last 10 years)

Paid work, 30+ hrs/week counts full-time. Must relate to the BC job offer’s occupation.

At least 1 year of that experience was in Canada (+10) I currently work full-time in BC for the supporting employer, in the registered occupation (+10)

Education

Your highest completed credential

Where did you complete it?

I hold an eligible BC professional designation matching the job offer (e.g. SkilledTradesBC, ECE) (+5)

Language

Your lowest CLB score across the 4 abilities (one test, valid 2 years)

BC scores your weakest ability, not your average.

CLB 4+ in all four abilities on both an English and a French test (+10)

BC job offer wage

Hourly wage in CAD (before tax, no tips/overtime)

$70+/hr scores the full 55 points; roughly one point per dollar below that.

Where in BC is the job?

Main physical work location

Regional bonus: 1+ year of work or graduated from a public post-secondary outside Metro Vancouver (+10)

The regional bonus is not available for Metro Vancouver jobs.

An estimate, not a decision. This calculator follows the BC PNP Skills Immigration Program Guide’s registration scoring (checked October 2026). There is no fixed pass mark — BC invites the highest-scoring registrants in each draw, and recent draws have selected scores around 138 with wage thresholds. It cannot assess your case or guarantee an invitation.
