The Alberta Advantage Immigration Program (AAIP) is an economic immigration program run by the governments of Alberta and Canada.
For immigration, refugees, and citizenship, Canada's federal government manages applications for permanent residence.
To apply for this, nominees must have the skills to fill job shortages and start a business in Alberta.
So, AAIP ensures some streams for workers and entrepreneurs who can apply for nominations are mentioned ahead.
Qualified candidates who reside and are employed in Alberta and have received a job offer from an Alberta employer.
Individuals who meet the minimum requirements in the Express Entry pool have a better chance of being selected.
Temporary foreign workers with a job offer in a designated community in Alberta are eligible to apply.
Entrepreneurs who want to start a business or buy an existing business can submit an expression of interest.
Foreign graduates with a degree from a post-secondary institution can submit an expression of interest.
If you are nominated under this program, you may be eligible to apply for permanent residency with your family.
