The criteria for the Engineering Occupations Category (includes but are not limited to:

You must be currently residing in Alberta.
You must intend to and be able to live permanently in Alberta.
You must provide evidence of related education/training and experience as an engineer, designer or drafter.
You must be currently working or have worked within the last two years in Alberta either directly or on contract for an Alberta Employer.

Your occupation in Alberta must be on the AINP Strategic Recruitment Stream Engineering Occupations List.

If you have engineering credentials and you are working in an occupation under NOC 0211, 2131, 2132, 2133, 2134, 2141, 2143, 2144, or 2145, you must provide a "Letter of No Objection" from the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA) or show that you are registered with APEGA as a foreign licensee.
If you are working in an occupation under NOC 2231, 2232, 2241 or 2253 you do not require a "Letter of No Objection" from APEGA.


Manveer, according to me you just have to have an engineering degree or diploma, doesn't matter where you get it from.
I would suggest you to call AINP and confirm that with them.
 
Hi can someone please answer this ASAP.

I wonder if I should wait to get my FBI police certificate or I should send my application without it now and then add it later when it arrives.

Hi, you can send your application now! read Checklist IMM5690E about police check (15) they said:"You must get a police certificate from each country or territory where you have lived for six or more months in a row since the age of 18. You are strongly encouraged to submit your police certificates with your application to the CIO. If you are unable to obtain all the necessary police certificates, you may still send your application to the CIO without them. However, we strongly recommend that you take steps to obtain your police certificates now to avoid future delays. You must be ready to submit them when requested by an officer."
 
Hello everyone,
I would like to share my timeline.
I have applied under SRS - Post graduate stream NOC 6311
Application received on 3rd February 2016
File number received on 23rd March 2016
Still waiting for nomination.
 
Hi everyone,

I applied for AINP SRS Engineering occupation category (NOC 2232) in February 11th, but I got laid off in March 15th, but I didn't update with AINP at all since I wanted to wait until I get another professional job, but I haven't got lucky at all since job market is too slow right now. and I still haven't receive nomination, so I called them today, the receptionist lady told me my application is still in normal reviewing process and it shows they are in the process of contacting my employer, and she said normally I have to let them know as soon as my employment status has changed. and them I called my old boss, he said he hasn't received any calls from AINP yet.

here's my questions folks,
- does AINP actually call your employer if you are under Engineering occupation category?
- say if they do need to call employers, is it normal for AINP to still be in the process of calling my employer almost 4 months after I submitted my application?
- does it matter if I don't let them know I was laid off, according to this AINP website , only employer driven category applications will be withdrawn if got laid off, they didn't mention anything else.
- what would they do if they found out from calling HR that I am no longer employed with my old company, would they call me to ask me or they are just gonna withdraw my application without saying a word?

thank you guys, I know that's a lot of questions, but this is so important to me, what should I do?!
 
Hey Patrick,

Yes AINP actually calls the employer to know if you still work with the company.

I applied way later than you and received my nomination.
