BC PNP

Started MBA: January 5, 2023 – June 30, 2024

Worked full-time as an Electrician: January 26, 2023 – Present

I received an ITA for BC PNP with 118 points.

However, the BC PNP program guide says that student work experience does not count, and it looks like I need 2 years of post-study work experience. Based on my timeline, I’ll be about 2 weeks short of completing 2 full years after graduation.

My deadline to submit the application is June 15, 2026, but my 2 years of post-study work experience will only be completed on June 30, 2026.

I spoke with two consultants, and both said BC PNP may count my entire 3.5 years of full-time electrician experience, even though I was studying during part of that time. But the BC PNP guide clearly says student experience doesn’t count, so now I’m confused.

Should I still apply anyway, or decline/cancel this ITA and wait for the next draw in July?

Would appreciate any advice or similar experiences. Thanks!
