Alberta PNP: November 24TH, 2021

On November 24th, 2021, the province of Alberta held an Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) draw.

 

For this round of AINP a total of 100 Express Entry candidates were invited to apply for a provincial nomination. 

 

The cut-off score for this round of draws was 350. This is a relatively high cut-off score for the AINP, with only one other draw having a high score of 360. The high cut-off score is due to a small AINP draw, typically AINP draws are around 200 invites per draw, with the Nov, 24th only 100. 

 

Each year Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), issues the limits for the number of nominations that a province can issue in a given year. Alberta’s 2021 quota is 6,250, thus far 6,094 nominations certificates were issued and is possibly the reason for a smaller draw.
