Of course! The AIPP program is focused on PR. WP is a way to get employees faster in to country to start working while waiting for PR.
You should apply for PR if you are applying from outside Canada instead of wasting time on work permit. PR applications under AIPP are being processed faster for outside Canada applicants. I just met a guy from Nigeria whose PR was processed in less than 2 months.

Hi,

I am under AIPP of Mercan, I want to share my experience.

May 6 - Job offer
July - Endorsement Letter
August - Medical Reqest
October - My Sons Medical Request for PR process even he is not coming with me
October 12 - Working Visa received
October 26 - PDOS

1. Show money includes my son. (Single mom) If you are married need to include in your proof of funds/show money 120k single plus 40k for dependent

2. We have visa and pdos certificate but still Mercan can not answer our deployment because of POLO process in canada that causing delays.

3. On the other hand, they are saying we need to wait for the PR release which is 6 months from the month they passed it which is October.

4. Until now were 16, few of us got Visa since september.

5. We might leave as per Mercan 6th month of the PR process. AIPP is new to their procedure. They have different way of handling clients even payment mode.
Please which country did u apply from ?

The Atlantic immigration pilot is heavy on employer as it asks for commitment from employer to support employees hired from foreign nations in a lot of ways which employers may not be willing to do unless they are really hurting for quality people.
Please don't be discouraged and keep applying, you never know when you hit an employer who is willing to invest in you.
Make sure to mention Atlantic immigration pilot in your cover letters.
Goodluck!
thank you for the encouragement
