Alberta Express Entry Stream

The Canadian province of Alberta invited 350 express entry candidates on January 18 in the second draw of the year. AINP (Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program) offered invitations to the candidates with CRS (Comprehensive Ranking System) of a minimum of 346. Invited immigration candidates will stand eligible under the Alberta Express Entry stream. The nominated candidates will be one step closer to Canadian permanent residence as the provincial nominee can apply to the federal government under the PNP. Express Entry candidates with provincial nominations get pushed to the top and are primed to receive an ITA for permanent residence.

Also at the start of the new year, the province announced its new Accelerated Tech Pathway. Eligible tech workers who qualify the criteria for the Alberta Express Entry stream may apply to get accelerated processing.

The Provincial Nominee Program offers an opportunity for express entry candidates with lower CRS to get 600 points as an award.
