Urgent update!!!!!!
Alberta has device a new strategy to systematically reject all outlanders who currently are having a file number awaiting selection.
They have sent to a friend of mine an outlander requesting that he clarifies is present location if in Canada or outside Canada as a results of the April 29 changes. This is a direct way to reject the application.
If you have any relation in Canada a legal challenge can be mounted for those whose received invitation to apply before the April 29 rules came into effect. I am told the rules were changed when your application was already in motion hence should be exempt from its application. The rules should the prospective not retrospective.You were issued invitation to apply under the old rules which the Alberta government failed to recognised.
Act now or be systematically rejected.

Can we not mount a legal challenge? All those selected on or before April 29 should be exempted from the new rule
Hi ,
Right now they are processing the application until 20h April , if all goes well and you have valid job offer regardless of the current status i believe we should get nomination.
any further comments.
Hi, did you reply and what did they say? Can you provide the work permit and saying that your employer is still offering the job to you
hi
What about the outland candidates who already got nominations from alberta and applied for PR after getting ITA?
will this thing effect those also or not?
Hopefully, this will not affect candidates with received nomination.
For example, if you have received your nomination in the beginning of the year, it is no longer valid anyway, so you just wait with others to get ppr.
We'll know this week what they say, even if you have job offer they can decline the nomination application unless you have work permit and living inside Alberta.
Well, its a sigh of relief for those who are already nominated. I also got the nomination which gave me 600 points... application timeline already completed, and I got to know that they had contacted my employer as well... So lets hope for the best. I pray for every applicant for their dreams come true..
