These draws are designed to support Alberta’s economy by selecting foreign workers already contributing or who are ready to support high-demand industries. For example:
- Healthcare candidates play a vital role in filling roles in hospitals and care homes across Alberta.
- Tech professionals strengthen Alberta’s digital infrastructure and startups.
- Tourism and hospitality workers are essential as Alberta’s tourism sector continues to grow post-pandemic.
- Law enforcement candidates help meet community safety needs in smaller municipalities.
Key Points for Applicants
To avoid delays, ensure all required documents are submitted. Missing documents can significantly impact application timelines. Review the official AAIP checklist carefully before submission.
Additionally, the AAIP doesn’t disclose draw scores or criteria ahead of time. Selection depends on factors such as occupation, ties to Alberta, work experience, and the province’s labour needs.
