The Federal Government had allowed the province of Alberta to issue 6,250 nomination certificates.
How does the Alberta Express Entry Stream work?
The Alberta Express Entry Stream is a PNP-aligned Express Entry stream that allows the province of Alberta to choose and invite skilled foreign candidates from the Express Entry pool to meet the province’s labor demand while issuing PR to them.
Express Entry manages applications for three Federal High Skilled programs:
After registering for the Express Entry stream, the candidates are ranked on their Comprehensive Ranking System score, which considers factors like age, work experience, language skills, etc.
The Express Entry draws are regularly held, inviting the highest-scoring candidates.
Although you can apply for a direct Express Entry stream, getting a provincial nomination adds up to 600 points to the CRS score, which further increases the chances of getting an ITA in the next draw.
What are Alberta Express Entry Stream Eligibility criteria?
- You should have a minimum of 1 year of work experience in an in-demand occupation of the province. ( AINP provides a list of non-eligible occupations rather than an eligible occupations list
- Many who apply under this stream work as food service supervisors, transport truck drivers, and cooks among others.
- There are a few factors that increase your chances of getting the invite, like work experience, proper educational credentials, and a valid job offer in Alberta.
