Hi alberta has just 274 spots left for the alberta express entry priority steam which includes construction, aviation,manufacturing. I wanted to know if anyone thinks alberta will get more spots this year. Maybe in September? Or if they will pull some spots from their other streams into the priority stream. They started the year with 600 spots for this stream. Thanks in advance
Alberta express entry Priority stream for construction

Highly unlikely. PR target are pretty firm and if anything UCP is trying to limit immigration not increase it.
Alberta is trying to decrease immigration and there is the AOS stream and they can draw from any NOC and there are over 20k in that pool. Feds will not change numbers unless Alberta takes more refugees. So don't count on it.
Please I need clarification . I did my masters in Ontario, I am working in Alberta as Chemical Process Operator (93100) . My company is a recycling company which their NAICS code is under recycling /whosales merchant. Am I eligible for Manufacturing priority stream after one year experience ?. Please I need quick answer to enable me make decisions either to go back to Ontario.

Just read the rules with your job offer. Also look at past draws and number of people in the pool. Your NOC and score have to selected.
I have read the information but I am still confused based on my company NAICS code . Does it apply to manufacturing as it is applied to accelerated tech . Also, does my NOC code 93100 eligible under manufacturing.
Alberta doesn't post what codes are under the streams so contact them but your employer should be in manufacturing. Call and ask.
I think the important thing here is to separate the NAICS and NOC requirements. Your NOC describes the job you perform, while the company’s NAICS code is related to the employer’s main business activity. So I would not assume that having a manufacturing-related job automatically means the employer qualifies under the manufacturing stream.
I’d first confirm the company’s actual NAICS code and then compare it with the eligible industry codes for the specific Alberta stream. After that, check whether your NOC 7310 is included in the eligible occupations. If both requirements have to be met, satisfying only the NOC side wouldn’t be enough.
If your employer has HR or someone who handles immigration, I’d also ask them to confirm the company’s NAICS classification directly rather than relying only on the job title. That should give you a much clearer answer before you submit anything.
