British Columbia PNP SIRS Points Calculator 2018

British Columbia is arguably one of the most economically developed of Canadian States. That is why it is an immigration hotspot not just in Canada but all over the world. Hundreds and thousands of professionals apply for permanent residence each year but only handfuls are selected. In January 2016, a new scoring system was introduced by the British Columbia authorities to further simplify the immigration and permanent residence. The Skilled Immigration Registration System (SIRS) allows a threefold entry pathway to skilled individuals into Canada and has certain criteria exclusive to British Columbia.

How Do I Calculate my SIRS Score?

The SIRS point system is a simple system which takes into account several factors to make an immigration candidates’ eligibility assessment. These factors are:

Skill level of the BC Job offer
Wage of the BC job offer
Regional district of employment
Directly related work experience
Highest level of education
Language

Firstly, you need to have a full-time employment offer from a British Columbia employer who is willing support you through the entire vetting process. However, if you have a degree from a British Columbia University then you don’t need to have the employment offer. After this step, when you submit your application you will be given a certain score based on the abovementioned factors. This score and your profile will be entered into the Express Entry pool along with the profiles of other candidates. British Columbia only invites the highest ranking candidates so it is important to optimize your profile ranking to gain an advantage over other candidates. The following is a breakdown of the point scoring system of SIRS. You can calculate your tentative score based on this. Free Enquiry
