On February 16, 2022, the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) was renamed to the Alberta Advantage Immigration Program.  The Government of Alberta also launched two new immigration streams – the Rural Renewal Stream and the Rural Entrepreneur Stream.

The names of some of the immigration streams were also changed:

  • The International Graduate Entrepreneur Immigration Stream is now the Graduate Entrepreneur Stream
  • The Foreign Graduate Start-Up Visa Stream is now the Foreign Graduate Entrepreneur Stream

The program and stream names will be updated in this portal in the coming weeks. 

Applications, Expressions of Interests (EOIs) and requests submitted under the old program and stream names will continue to reflect the old names.
