Hi,
I am a postdoctoral fellow in University of Calgary. I recently applied under the Strategic Recruitment stream Alberta Nominee Program for nomination. My application however was rejected with the following reason stated:
" You receive a stipend rather than a salary and have no deductions for Canada Pension Plan or Employment Insurance. The AINP does not consider you to be in an employer/employee relationship and you do not meet AINP criteria to “be working full-time in Alberta, at the time of application, for an Alberta employer"
Has anyone had a success with PR application while doing postdoc. If so, could you please tell me which is the more relevant stream towards which I must apply?
Thanks!
