1. Don’t know. Alberta is only drawing from their Alberta Opportunity Stream for those living, working and studying in the province. Many NOCs are now ineligible...so check list.
2. Visitor visa doesn’t help. You can apply for written authorization to travel but you can‘t work in Canada. To get a job offer, you need a LMIA and for Alberta, there are only a few NOCs on the exemption list.

Hi All,

I have following questions.
1) I have Job description on letter head from current employer ( 4 years ) however i only have Experience letter stating number of Years & Designation from previous employers (5 years) . They are not willing to favor further. so Is it OK to update profile accordingly.?

2) From last 3 month, i was depositing funds in my account and now this week of month (Jan-21) my a/c balance will meet required funds by CIC but my 6 month average balance requirement will not meet... Now the real question is, can i complete my online profile and apply very next month irrespective of 6 month average balance requirement. i a, saying this because some applicants have done this before and they were successful. They said that CIC needs to see that funds belong to you and not borrowed from others in short notice.. My IELTS will expire in December & also i want to put my case at least in QUE so when they start draws , i got chance before their allocation ends..

3) What should i OPT . AINP EE or AINP occupation in demand. And what are the differences.
Pls suggest.

There are only two paths - AINP EE or AINP AOS (work,live and study in Alberta). If you are in Alberta pick AOS because these are the only draws right not. If in the EE stream, see if your eligible and check if your NOC is on the exemption list because if it isn’t it decreases your chances of a nomination. For express entry, your employment letter must state your responsibilities, wage, hours worked and time worked. Funds should be ok.

If your work permit expires without an invitation then you need a LMIA. You will need to check their LMIA NOC list to see if your NOC is exempt. If it is exempt, you can apply for a new LMIA and WP. If you don’t have a valid permit, you are not eligible for AOS.

Hoping that AB will send NOIs very soon. As per history, they sent NOIs for AINP EE in 2nd week of January 2019 & 2020.

Thanks for the reply.
One point is still not clear to me. For a POF, the average balance of 6 month should be CAD 24100 approx for 4 persons. My time will waste if i go for that 6 month avg balance factor. This week my account reached above to required Balance at CAD 25000. what, if i apply jest next month as my balance will be CAD 25000 but Avg balance will be lower. i think think this issue will not affect my case. So what you and other think about it....

If my wife is on SOWP in Canada, can she qualify for AINP? We intend to reside in BC as I will be on study permit and will be studying there.

If you aren’t living in Alberta then you wouldn’t qualify if you live in BC...two different provinces.

Thanks. Got it. I was hoping they would consider our file as an inland applicant since they are not currently issuing NOI's to outland applicants.
