Alberta Immigration Announces New Opportunity Stream

Migrate to Canada


The new Alberta Opportunity Stream will start accepting applications from January 2, 2018. This new stream comes under the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Programme.

 

This new stream will ease the process of Permanent Residence for foreign workers who are already working and staying in Alberta. Just like all the other streams operating under the AINP, this stream is a base Provincial Nominee Programme Stream, which means that all applications are processed outside the Federal Express Entry system of Permanent Residence. All candidates who are successful through this stream get a provincial nomination and then apply for permanent residence.

Candidates can apply to the new stream only if they have a valid job offer from an employer in Alberta.

At the time of application, all applicants must have a valid TRV (temporary resident visa) and should be working or living in Alberta. Job should either be LMIA positive or LMIA exempt under existing international trade agreements.

 

English or French ability needs to be at least CLB 4. Nurse aides, orderlies and patient service associates need to have a higher CLB 7 at the minimum. All applicants should also at least have finished High school. Applications will be accepted from those who have at least one-year full time work experience in Alberta in the last one and a half year.
