BC PNP extends the Entrepreneur Immigration – Regional Pilot for 3 years

The BC PNP Entrepreneur Immigration (EI) Regional Pilot has been extended until March 31, 2024.

The EI Regional Pilot was introduced in March 2019 to support economic growth in smaller regional centres of B.C. and is an innovative collaboration between regional communities and the provincial government. Over the past two years, it has demonstrated its ability to attract entrepreneurs from around the world and to contribute to regional economic development needs, despite the impacts of COVID-19.

With travel restrictions still in effect, communities across B.C. may have other priorities and are unable to focus on the EI Regional Pilot. This extension will help communities welcome new entrepreneurs to their regions, and be well positioned to support recovery post-pandemic.

In total, 65 communities enrolled in the initial pilot phase. Many will receive new entrepreneurs in their communities once international travel restrictions are lifted.
