So far in the year 2021, the province of Alberta has issued a total of 1,490 invitations apply for the provincial nomination program
March 30, 2021
The province of Alberta invited an additional 200 candidates from the Express Entry Pool to apply for their provincial nomination program that took place on April 20 of this year.
All the candidates that were invited in this draw required a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score equivalent to a minimum of 301 points. The CRS score cut-off dropped down to one point in comparison to the last draw.
If all these applicants are found to be eligible for receiving the nomination through the Alberta Express Entry Immigration Stream, then they will get an additional 600 points towards their overall CRS score in their Express Entry Profile. Once the applicant receives these extra points in their EOI, they have great chances to receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) from the Federal Government of Canada in the subsequent Express Entry draw.
The provincial government manages all the eligible applications though the PNP program of Alberta, that is, Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP), which manages and operates the Provincial Nominee Programs for the immigrants that are found to be eligible for the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program.
The Alberta Express Entry Immigration Stream is one of the important PNP, which implies that it selects skilled and professional candidates directly from the Express Entry Pool. The first and foremost step to become eligible for the PNP program of Alberta is to create and submit your profile in the Express Entry System.
Express Entry Stream
Express Entry System is the main and foremost application management system of Canada for the three renowned Federal High Skilled Immigration streams, which includes the Federal Skilled Worker Program, the Canadian Experience Class and the Federal Skilled Trades Program.
Eligible immigration applicants are given a score point on the basis of the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). These points are awarded to the candidates for human capital factors which the government has determined and assists the prospective candidates that have applied for immigration to succeed in the Canadian labor market. These factors include the applicant’s age, education, and employment experience, language proficiency in English and French along with others.
In a gap of every weeks, the immigration department of Canada, that is, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), frequently holds Express Entry Draw, thereby inviting applicants to apply for immigration to Canada. All the highest scoring candidates receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for the permanent residence of Canada. If they get approved, then they receive a Confirmation of Permanent Residence Visa which then enables them to proceed towards the final step and make their landing in Canada, after which they become the official permanent residents of Canada.
If the applicants who receive an invitation to apply from the provincial government of Alberta receive the provincial nomination, they automatically get awarded with 600 additional CRS points towards their existing scores in the EOI. This implies that the invited candidates who already have scores equivalent to the minimum required points in this particular draw would be able to increase their CRS scores up to 901 points.
Alberta Express Entry Stream
The Alberta Provincial Nominee Program is for those Express Entry candidates who have mentioned string ties with Alberta and who have established in their application that they are capable to support the economic development and diversification plans of the province. During the pandemic situation, Alberta is the only one considering applicants who are already inside the province and are either living or working there.
Applicants are also needed to have a prior work experience in one of the eligible occupations as Alberta has recognized list of occupations that are not eligible for the requirement of the Alberta Express Entry Stream.
The provincial government of Alberta was allowed to issue a total of 6,250 nomination certificates in the year 2020. However, due to the restrictions imposed amidst pandemic situation, the same was reduced to 4,000 nominations. All of these nominations were issued until June 2020 and therefore no draws released by the AINP in the second half of the year.
The total number of provincial nominations that were allocated to the AINP for the year 2021 are yet to be disclosed.
