Scoring grid checked 15 September 2026 against Part 8 of the official BC PNP Program Guide.

Estimated score: 0 / 200View breakdown ↓
01

Work experience

Up to 40 points

Count qualifying paid experience related to your B.C. job offer within the last 10 years. Part-time work is credited at 50% of its duration.

Which experience can I count?

The Canadian-experience bonus requires authorized work with an employer established in Canada: at least 12 months at 30 or more regular hours per week, or 24 months below 30 hours. The current-employment bonus excludes unpaid work and a future promotion. Student, co-op and doctoral experience have specific rules. Check section 8.1 of the official guide.

02

Education

Up to 40 points

Use a completed credential from a program longer than six months. Canadian distance-education programs do not qualify. A post-graduate program must require a bachelor's degree for admission.

Only the highest credential selected above can receive this bonus. Language training and distance learning do not qualify.

Check eligible professional designations

The list includes eligible trades certificates or registered apprenticeships, specified dental occupations, ECEs (not ECE assistants), health care aides, pharmacy technicians, practical nurses, traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and acupuncturists, and veterinary technicians. Not every regulated occupation receives this bonus. Your designation must match the offered job and the specific requirements in the official designation table.

03

Language

Up to 40 points

Use your stronger valid English or French test, taking its lowest level across listening, reading, writing and speaking. Enter the benchmark level, not a raw test score.

Both valid test results must be provided at application to claim the bilingual bonus.

04

Job-offer wage

Up to 55 points

Use the base hourly rate in your B.C. job offer. Do not include overtime, tips, commissions, bonuses or allowances.

My offer shows an annual salary

Divide annual base salary by 52, then by the regular weekly hours (30 to 40 hours). Full-time B.C. elementary and secondary teachers use annual salary ÷ 52 ÷ 30. Use the resulting hourly amount for this estimate. See the wage rules.

05

Location in B.C.

Up to 25 points

Use your main physical work location in B.C. If you work from home, use your residential address. Choose your workplace, not just your employer's head office.

When does the regional bonus apply?

Regional experience: at least one year of full-time-equivalent paid work outside Metro Vancouver within the past five years. Regional alumni: graduation within the past three years from an eligible public B.C. post-secondary institution outside Metro Vancouver, while residing outside Metro Vancouver; at least eight months of eligible full-time-equivalent coursework. Private institutions, language training and distance learning do not qualify for the alumni bonus. Only one 10-point regional bonus is available, even if you meet both conditions. Review section 8.5.

This tool estimates registration points only. It does not assess every stream, employer, job-offer, licensing or admissibility requirement. Understand your result ↓

Your score is a starting point—not a decision.

The BC PNP Skills Immigration Registration System (SIRS) awards up to 200 points: 120 for human-capital factors and 80 for economic factors. This tool estimates that registration score; it does not submit a registration or confirm that you qualify.

BC PNP eligibility, the employer and job offer, supporting documents and current invitation criteria must be reviewed separately. Compare your result with the official invitation results, not a promised passing score.

BC PNP calculator questions

Is this an official government calculator?

No. This is an independent estimator provided by Tudor House Immigration Services. It is not operated by, affiliated with or endorsed by the governments of British Columbia or Canada.

What is a good BC PNP score?

There is no permanent passing score. Invitations depend on the criteria used for each draw, which can change. A past minimum score is not a forecast or a guarantee of a future invitation. Check the official invitation results for the draw criteria that apply to your situation.

Is this the same as an Express Entry CRS score?

No. This calculator estimates a BC PNP Skills Immigration registration score. It is not the federal Express Entry Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), and it does not calculate BC PNP Entrepreneur Immigration points.

How should I use my result?

Enter information supported by your records, review the bonus conditions and copy your summary. A professional review can consider the job offer, work history, education and language results alongside the requirements that a points calculator cannot assess.

Reference: BC PNP Skills Immigration Program Guide. Always check the current official requirements before registering. Learn more about provincial nominee programs or BC PNP Entrepreneur Immigration.
