Hi Guys,

I have a Bridging Closed Work Permit through Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP), I have also received a positive LMIA. Now I'm confused whether i need to apply for another work permit or can i use my existing work permit and apply for express entry?

Please advise

Thanks alot

Ryan

Hi ryan!

First question, Lmia and ur closed work permit same employer?
If ur on NOC A B or O skilled position with that LmIA it can add some more points toward EE. Does AINP give u certificate of PnP? If yes then u just need ur english test and choose the best and fastest way to apply towards PR.

Hi MM3,

Yes. my LMIA and AINP closed work permit are from same employer.
I also have my AINP certificate, my NOC is B. I also have my english test (celpip) score ready. So i don't need another work permit through LMIA, I can just go with whatever option i prefer?

Thanks bud.

only to make sure:
you can't use the AINP certificate for express entry
