Alberta released the results of the last immigration round

The passing score in this selection has skyrocketed again.

The province released the results of the selection process, which took place on February 16. On that day, the Alberta Immigration Program sent 159 invitations to eligible applicants who have an active Express Entry profile and received an invitation to apply (Alberta Express Entry Stream).

In this selection, the eligibility requirements returned to their previous level — the minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score had to be at least 352, 51 points higher than in the previous draw.

Candidates were required to have a profile on Express Entry in order to receive an invitation to qualify.

Express Entry is the system the federal government of Canada uses to process permanent residence applications for the three federal immigration programs:

Candidates in Express Entry have the opportunity to be invited to apply for provincial nomination. They need to have experience in a relevant profession that supports the province's economic development and diversification priorities.

The highest ranked candidates are then invited to apply for permanent residency through regular Express Entry drawings. Candidates who receive a provincial nomination are awarded an additional 600 CRS points. This effectively guarantees that they will receive an invitation to apply for a subsequent Express Entry.

Points are awarded for human factors such as the candidate's age, education, work experience, knowledge of English or French, and others.

To maximize your chances of receiving an invitation to submit a nomination, we recommend keeping an eye on history of passing scores and number of invitations.
