If i recieve a job offer as a LPN in the province of Alberta, can i apply for PNP ?
Does Alberta accepts LPNs as PNP applicants or should i apply through the Federal Skill worker programme?

Licensed practical nurse NOC code 3233 is a skilled profession and would qualify under AB PNP.

Since the federal skilled worker program is now waiting for new rules to continue, it would be better for you to go through a PNP if you have that option.

I was told by the AB PNP that it takes 6-15 months to get residency there under the regular skilled worker program for those who are on temporary work permits. The h1b program I don't know.

Are you saying that the entire PNP AB Process is 6-15 months or is it just the nomination process?
