AINP

[Mrs. PR]

The AINP is authorized by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) to issue a maximum of 5,500 nomination certificates during the 2014 calendar year.
As of the end of May, the AINP has issued close to half of its maximum nomination certificates for 2014.
Once the AINP reaches the maximum nomination certificates it can issue in 2014, further certificates can be issued only in 2015.

Submitting an application to the AINP does not guarantee a nomination. Program officers carefully review eligibility.
Visit our website regularly for updates to the AINP and to processing times.
We know that foreign workers face many challenges when planning for permanent residence. However, there are more people interested in the AINP than there are nomination certificates available. This can lead to delays in processing times. We appreciate your patience.

Note:
Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) processing times are subject to change without notice. The information here regarding processing times is the most recent. These changes are effective as of June 5, 2014. .

Good morning guys. My representative just called me that they have received my nomination.

My timeline:
App received by AINP: Nov. 6
File number: Dec. 4
Category: Employer driven semi skilled hospitality industry
No verification calls

Tip: last week i called AINP just to ask: 'Since the processing for Nov. 26 and after applicants is 8-12 mos., how about those applicants they have received before Nov. 26?' And they said those applicants before Nov. 26, they will finalize for sure within 8 months. So i told them that AINP received my app on Nov. 6 and they said they can take a look at my file in their system so I gave them my file number, they updated me that something has been sent to my representative on June 9 but they can't disclose what it is.

So i guess you guys who have applied before Nov. 26, try calling AINP and ask for an update.

Hi Mj! Congratulations btw, happy for you! May I know which number is it to call? Please and thank you

Thanks for sharing MJ, I might as well call them myself, I had submitted my application on Nov 21, 2013. Can you share the number you called?

Thank you
