Alberta H1B PNP- Any minimum residency period required?

[yezdi]

Hi everyone,

I am new to this forum and just starting to explore Canadian immigration. I have a couple of questions-

1. After getting permanent residence through the Alberta (H1B) PNP Strategic Recruitment Stream, are we required to live in Alberta for any minimum period to keep the PR status/be eligible for citizenship. Or can we live anywhere in Canada?

2. I looked for this program on the official Alberta immigration website but could not find this H1B Strategic Recruitment Stream. Can someone please send me the link to it.

Appreciate your help.
Thanks

AINP SRS is meant for folks with valid H1B (one year's stay in USA) to stay and work in Alberta. It is expected in Good Faith that the applicant has all intentions to work and stay in AB. I haven't seen any writing on the wall that you cannot work in other provinces, but during your naturalization or PR renewal, if CIC finds that you intentionally used AINP as means to work in other province, things could go awry.

From what I have read and heard, after one demonstrates reasonable stay in AB for few months without any job, he should be good to move to other province.
