I am looking to move to British Columbia / Vancouver. I am aware of the need to sign up the NCAS to get credentials matched and also sign up to the regulatory body BCCNM. I just don't know if I need a job offer first, if I need to apply for a visa or if they sort it for me? Do I need to move to Canada first or can most of it be done from the UK until I am ready to move over? I also have a 1 years old cat who I am looking to immigrate with also. I know I will need a SIN number but how do I get that? I just don't know where to start?

    Not sure if you got an answer to this question or not. But here's my advice based on my experience.

    Apply for NCAS and BCCNM first - they will help hook you up with a job through HealthMatchBC. I already became a permanent resident without needing a job through marriage - but the employer will be able to sponsor you. 

    As for your cat, we got our cats' health certificates from the vet before bringing them across the border - mostly they wanted rabies to be up to date. https://inspection.canada.ca/importing-food-plants-or-animals/pets/eng/1326600389775/1326600500578
