The BC PNP February 2026 High Economic Impact Draw just raised the bar — and if you’re not paying attention, you could miss your shot at permanent residency.

In two back-to-back draws on February 4 and February 11, 2026, the BC Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) invited 889 high-earning professionals to apply for nomination.

But here’s the real story:
