Alberta Tech pathway

If you are eligible for Express Entry and government entity is eligible and registered as a business. They have to show the recruitment process and that they couldn't hire anyone Canadian/PR or any Albertan etc. The government entity NAICS code must be on the list too.

Last tech draw was 22 people and there are almost 3000 profiles in the tech pool.

Thank you for the information.
I don’t know if the government entity is a business; I don’t think it is.
Also, the NAICS code does not apply because the entity is a public service.
I am not eligible for AOS either.
It seems that even working full time, paying taxes, and having a job offer does not give any chance for PR.
Through Express Entry only but not Alberta PNP-EE. You don't have a job offer because your employer is not eligible. With PNPs cut, even Alberta is very focused on who it nominates. Check the draws to see as focus is in AOS and there are 30k in that pool for just a few thousand spots.
So you need to max IELTS if you haven't done already. How much longer on your work permit? Do you have foreign experience?
You need to focus on Express Entry if not eligible for AOS or tech pathway. Not sure your EOI score would be high enough without Alberta education. AOS are for those on LMIA or who studied in the province.
Now, does getting a LMIA job offer make any difference?
Is a LMIA for PR support different from a regular LMIA?
There really is no LMIA PR support anymore. Employers didn't have to pay anything and could apply for PR support LMIA for their employee to give them the 50 points. What NOC do you have a LMIA in? Maybe eligible for AOS depending on EOI score and if NOC is selected.
- I'm not eligible for AOS because I'm on a SOWP.
- NoC 20012
- EE 460
So, if my employer applies for LMIA to help me get PR, does that really exist? Can I apply directly for PR, or what is the process?

A LMIA is of no benefit anymore for your EE profile. It just allows you to apply for a closed work permit. Since your employer will restart the hiring/recruitment process and pay the $1k fee then if approved for LMIA and then your closed work permit, you may be eligible for AOS.
Hi everyone, I need some advice. I applied to the AAIP – Alberta Express Entry stream under the Accelerated Tech Pathway and was selected with 67 points. I claimed points for a 2-year Software Development Diploma from Bow Valley College (Alberta), which I believed was my highest relevant education.
After receiving my ITA, I uploaded my foreign Bachelor's in Industrial Design with the ECA. AAIP now says that’s my highest credential (even though it’s unrelated to my current tech job), so they recalculated my score to 60 and asked me to explain.
Has anyone faced this before? Can anyone suggest how I could argue that I deserve the 14 points (4 for the diploma + 10 for Alberta education) instead of just 7 for the foreign degree? Any tips or examples would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Your highest education is your bachelor degree so that is 7 points. Then it says
"Location of Highest Level of Education Completed in Canada" which is not your diploma.
Hire a lawyer to argue your case.
