BC Pathway Check

Before you start

This is not legal or immigration advice.BC Pathway Check is a free, self-interactive tool. It shows roughly where a person stands across Express Entry, the BC PNP and the Rural Community Immigration Pilot, based only on the details you enter.

Scores are tentative estimates. Official scores are set by IRCC, the BC PNP and each community after reviewing documents.
Program rules and draw results change often. Always check official government sources before acting.
For advice on a specific case, speak with a licensed immigration consultant (CICC) or lawyer.
WorkerPool is a data processing company, not an immigration representative.

I understand this is a self-assessment tool and not legal or immigration advice.

Every invitation round this year

This tool gives a tentative estimate for general information only. It is not immigration advice and doesn't guarantee an invitation, nomination or visa. Scores depend on documents that IRCC and the BC PNP verify. Express Entry scoring follows IRCC's Comprehensive Ranking System, including the changes announced for November 3, 2026; the full revised grid had not been published by IRCC at the time of writing, so the high-wage parts are estimates. BC PNP scoring follows the Skills Immigration Program Guide (Part 8). Proof-of-funds amounts are IRCC's July 2025 figures; IRCC updates them yearly. Draw data: Express Entry to October 16, 2026; BC PNP to October 8, 2026. For advice on a specific case, consult a licensed immigration consultant (CICC) or lawyer.
