Hello Everybody
Till date the Alberta INP-family stream is accepting applications, while this year's number under this stream was only 600.
Has anyone got any nomination under this stream?.
I would welcome if anyone had applied under the category .

Regards!!

Note that the 600 application limit has been removed, this has become a permanent process and applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis with no cut off.

New Horison, i suggest your spouse does an english learning course followed by the english test.  At the information session they said every member coming in under the visa must be able to have passed the test, and proof of this has to be sent with the application

b'coz if u go in depth one way or other this stream is same as FSW
Province want young , english speaking people, having one yr of post matric study as well as job experiece and having blood relative in alberta ................. what it is ?.......... same as FSW ....... but fast tracked

THATS PURELY MY OPINION  !!!

AINP family stream is not the same as FSW.  It's a totally different program allowing people who would not meet FSW requirements to immigrate to AB if they have family in AB.

AINP is not to reunite families - its about bringing skilled worked to AB.  FSW, on the otherhand, is more geared to helping bring family members in

Are you sure you don't have this in reverse?  FSW requirements have very little to do with having family in Canada although you do get a few extra points if you do.  AINP family stream on the other hand allows people to sponsor their relatives that they would not be allowed to sponsor under the federal system, for example aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, children over age 22 etc.

Of course there is also AINP employer driven stream, H1B campaign and other programs for skilled workers.

Maybe i am confusing FSW with something else but at the AINP info session, they stressed, on more than one occasion that the purpose of the AINP family stream process was not to re-unite family members, yes, you can sponsor them to bring them here but it was more geared towards getting the skills needed in AB.  Hence the reason there is the age limit on there also.

They said if you wanted to bring other family members here, parents, etc it would have to be through the federal process.  But that the federal process was more in line with bringing families together....

FSW stands for Federal skilled worker.  It's the program where you get points for your education and experience and the one also with the new rules that you need to have experience in one of 38 "most wanted" occupations to apply or failing that, you need to have a job offer to apply.  It has very little to do with family ties although you do get a few extra points for having a close family member in Canada.

There is a federal family sponsorship system but it is very limited in who it allows you to sponsor.  You can bring your parents or grandparents but it takes a very long time.  You can bring a spouse.  You can bring your own or your spouses children if they are under 22 or financially dependent on you.  You can bring siblings, nieces and nephews only if they are orphan and under 18.  That's pretty much it.  You can not bring your uncle or aunt or cousin, you can not bring niece or nephew or sibling over 18 or not orphaned and you can not even bring your children if they are over 22 and working.

There is a clause that says you can bring one other relative if you have no other relatives in Canada but I looked into it before AINP family stream was started and my brother was thinking about maybe coming here but I found out that to qualify for this "one other relative" clause in the federal system, not only could I have no relatives in Canada which I don't but also I could not have any sponsorship eligible relatives anywhere else, even if they were not interested in being sponsored so because my parents are alive, even if they are not interested in coming to Canada at all, that meant that I could not sponsor my brother.  Also if I had been able to sponsor my brother, he had to be alone.  Since he is married, that too would have stopped me from sponsoring him.  Of course I could sponsor him now under AINP but he changed his mind.

Unfortunately, my parents don't qualify since the site [http://www.albertacanada.com/immigration/immigrate/familystreamcandidate.html] reads
"The Candidate and their Spouse/Common-law partner (if applicable) must be between the ages of 21 and 45."

Not sure then - thats just what the guy at the info session was spouting on about....i think maybe becuase lots of people there were asking how they could bring someone in under FSW and then AINP and then more under AINP - but were missing the point of the process, it seemed more they just wanted to get people here.
