On December 3, 2019, Alberta updated the inventory statistics of the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP). The province issued another 412 nominations since the last update on November 22. Alberta has almost reached its allocated quota for 2019. So far, AINP issued 5,976 certificates of the nomination of a total of 6,000. This means that by the end of the year, Alberta can nominate only 24 candidates. In 2018, AINP got a quota of 5,600 nominations. In 2019, it was increased by 400 spots, including 250 allocated for temporary foreign workers whose occupation is in the NOC C, as a part of the NOC C initiative by the federal government. As of today, there are 1,750 applications in the AINP’s inventory waiting for the eligibility assessment. In the Alberta Opportunity Stream, the approximate number of applications waiting for assessment is 1,275. Those applications were received before July 18, 2019.
