Immigration to Canada from BC (permanent residency)?

My understanding is you are enquiring about BC Provincial Nominee Program; if you want to apply for permanent resident status in this program you will have to graduate and after that find work. It won't make much difference if you graduate in summer or winter but you have to graduate first. Read more about this program at the web site listed below. I have not heard of any changes coming up but it's always a good idea to check BC PNP web site regularly because they do make changes quite frequently.
