Today July 18, 2023, a total of 112 ITAs were issued for the Skilled Worker and International Graduate streams, which also include the Express Entry BC (EEBC) option. This draw targeted individuals in the tech industry, with a minimum score requirement of 88. This indicates a high demand for skilled tech workers in British Columbia, reflecting the province’s growing tech sector and its need for talented individuals to fill these roles.

In addition to the tech industry, there were also targeted draws for other specific sectors. A total of 39 ITAs were issued for the Childcare stream, specifically for early childhood educators and assistants (NOC 42202). These individuals had a minimum score requirement of 60. This draw highlights the importance of childcare services in the province and the ongoing need for qualified professionals in this field.

The healthcare sector was another targeted area, with 16 ITAs issued. Like the childcare sector, the minimum score requirement for these individuals was also 60. This draw underscores the critical role of healthcare professionals in British Columbia, particularly in the context of the ongoing global health crisis.

Lastly, fewer than 5 ITAs were issued for other priority occupations, including NOCs 31103 and 32104. These codes correspond to specific occupations that are considered a priority by the province. Although the number of ITAs issued in this category was relatively small, it still signifies the province’s commitment to filling gaps in its labour market.
