Current status: closed to new applicants
The BC PNP International Graduate stream is no longer available for new registrations or applications. This page was reviewed on October 17, 2026.
Closure timeline
BC issued the final International Graduate invitations on November 26, 2024 and then closed the stream. Registrants who did not receive an invitation were removed from its pool. The closure included the Express Entry BC option.
On April 23, 2026, BC confirmed that it would not launch the proposed replacement student streams. A Canadian credential by itself does not create a new application opportunity under the former International Graduate stream.
If you already applied
Use the instructions and correspondence for your existing file. An old registration or an archived eligibility guide should not be treated as permission to make a new application.
Review current options
Graduates should check the current BC PNP worker pathways and their individual requirements before planning a new registration. A previous qualification for the International Graduate stream does not establish eligibility under a different stream.
VGIS can review your current circumstances or an existing file. Book a paid consultation.
