Thursday, 21 May 2009

There is an exciting opportunity for those who are currently working in the US to apply for a fast-track immigration to Canada via the Alberta Provincial Nominee Program.

The eligibility requirements are the following: a candidate must have been working in the United States for a minimum of 1 year and possessed the valid visa (H1-B, H1-B1, H-1C, E-3) at the moment of applying for a provincial certificate up to the moment of issuance of the same; the work experience must have been acquired in one of the eligible occupations.

If a candidate complies with the requirements, he becomes a Provincial Nominee. Then his application is to be processed by the federal government and, having passed health and security checks, an applicant shall be granted a permanent resident status.
