Applying for work permit at point of entry with BC PNP

[Jodik]

Hello,
I am hoping to receive my BC PNP nomination within the next few days, as the status has now changed to "decision finalized". I have applied under the Skills Immigration – Health Care Professional category and my employer. My employer will also pay the compliance fee and I am from the UK.


If I apply for a work permit at point of entry, would I receive it straight away and be able to work the same week? Also my partner is included in my BC PNP application. Could he apply at POE too?

Thanks

Like I asked in your other thread, which one of these categories apply to you:

• you have a valid study or work permit
• your spouse, common-law partner or parents have a valid study or work permit
• you’ve graduated from a program at a:
  • Canadian university
  • community college
  • CÉGEP
  • publicly funded trade/technical school, or
  • other eligible school
• you have a temporary resident permit that is valid for six months or more
• you’re waiting on a decision on an application for permanent residence from inside Canada
• you made or will make a claim for refugee protection
• you’ve been recognized as a convention refugee or protected person by the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada
• you’re allowed to work in Canada without a work permit but you need a work permit to work in a different job, or
• you’re a trader, investor, intra-company transferee or professional under NAFTA
