ALBERTA AINP NEW PORTAL - NOI 2021

[meetact]

Does anyone have an idea how long does it take to receive NOI in EE profile after the draw (if the profile is selected) ?

 

[RobynCarpenter]

@SylviaO Not sure, they only publish their draw dates on the AAIP website about a month after each draw, so unless someone who got a NOI posts here or you know them personally or something, it's hard to say.

@meetact Mine came in quite early in the day, I think before noon.

@RobynCarpenter, according to AAIP website they had a draw on 1 February and sent 400 NOIs, the cut off score is 340. But I haven’t received an NOI since my score is 383.
Does cut off score means that candidates with and above that score will receive NOI ?

No it is also based on NOC so you need to be selected based on CRS score and whether your NOC is in demand.

Side comment: Alberta seems to be taking full advantage of the pause in FSW-EE ITAs. They get to pick the cream of the crop right now, most of whom would probably have not considered AB as their first choice under different circumstances.

@meetact : Yah what @Naturgrl said. Plus, and you've probably already seen this on their website, they also list "Factors that Increase / decrease your chances" that may contribute.

It says

• Candidates who submitted their application using our online portal must now request a nomination extension in the portal.

What does this mean? Please can you explain?

Hmm, I'm not quite sure. Maybe people who are currently in the application process can chime in here.

 

[Proud04]

I think it is for those who applied online, got a nomination and would like an extension to their nomination now.

Yes, I have seen that, my NOC 4214 and have sibling in Alberta.

Are you certified in Alberta as an ECE?

Yes.

 

[Naturgrl]

Yes.

Then you will need to wait and see if they select your NOC with CRS score.

Hello guys,

I have a question, I am an outlander and I did masters degree from Alberta in 2013, I have created my ee profile in Dec 2021 and my CRS is 382 with noc 7311, why I did not get NOI.
Any help would be appreciated.

They didn’t select your NOC. Alberta doesn’t publish what NOCs are selected for draws just the minimum CRS scores. People then come on the forum and ask why they didn’t receive NOI.
