I just created my Express Entry profile and I am thinking of applying for AINP AOS.
Some questions here:
- Do i need to submit it by paper to the office in Edmonton?
- Do i need to be present in Canada with work permit, LMIA and etc?
- What is the usual timeline for AINP process?
- What is the chances for me to get nominated through EE?
Here is my timeline
CRS-390
NOC-6321
If someone could get back to me on these questions that would be great. Thank you so much.
First of all you need to be selected by AINP from the EE pool - aka notification of interest (NOI)
Accept the NOI, they will send you document checklist to submit
You will receive a file number
You get nominated
600 extra points added to your EE profile
CIC conducts a draw, you receive ITA
You apply for PR... the rest is history
Bottom line is you don’t need to do anything once you are in the EE pool, just make sure you check Alberta as a province you want to move to.
