AINP - working remotely for a company located in Ontario

[rockwidme]

Hello everyone, I am posting this on behalf on my younger brother.

My brother is currently on a post graduation work permit which is valid until 2026. He resides in Alberta with me, however, he is working remotely for a multinational company that has their office in Toronto, Ontario. His job category falls under NOC 11101, Teer 1.

Question:

1. Would he qualify for AINP as he resides here, has a sibling here? even though he works for a company located in Toronto?

2. Is applying for immigration under Canadian Experience Class by gaining 1 year of work experience a more viable option?

3. Any other suggestions/option for his particular scenario?

If he is eligible for EE then yes. He doesn’t have a job offer or counting job as being located in Alberta.

Thank you for your response. By EE do you mean Express Entry? My apologies, I did not fully understand the second part of you response. Could you kindly elaborate a little.

Yes, if you are eligible for Express Entry then eligible for AINP. Your job doesn’t give you any extra consideration for Alberta because company is in Toronto. However, you have a family member living there.

By EE do you mean EE by Canadian Experience Class?

Express Entry has two streams - CEC and FSW (Foreign Skilled Workers). AINP is based on draws of your CRS score and NOC.

Restarting the conversation, he created an EE profile under CEC and the CRS score is 503. Wondering what happens next, is waiting an only option to see when the EE draws for CEC are held and hope that his profile falls within the cut off score?

If CEC draw is at least 503 then yes he would get an ITA. Last CEC draw in May was 522.
