Once submitted, candidates are placed in a Worker Stream pool and ranked based on a points grid similar to the federal Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Points are awarded for factors like education (with additional points for Alberta education), language proficiency, work experience (particularly in Alberta), age, and family connections in the province.
Higher-ranked candidates are more likely to receive an invitation for provincial nomination, sent via email. Alberta advises candidates to withdraw any existing Worker EOIs or AAIP applications before creating a new one, and assures there’s no rush, as worker stream draws will begin mid-to-late October.
Pathways to Permanent Residence Expanded
This temporary initiative will grant work permits to up to 215 temporary workers, identified by the Yukon government, allowing them to continue working while their permanent residency applications under the Yukon Nominee Program are processed. These workers, who meet the eligibility criteria, are expected to obtain permanent residency by 2025 or 2026. Their contributions are vital to Yukon's economy and Canada's diversity.
IRCC has already collaborated with Alberta, Manitoba, and Yukon on this initiative and remains open to working with other provinces and territories to support the transition of temporary workers to permanent residency, ensuring labour market needs are met.
Our RCIC expert walks you through the entire checklist, ensuring you don't miss any critical forms or supporting evidence required by IRCC. From marriage certificates to proof of relationship, this video is designed to simplify the process for you.

Minimum Wage Increases Across Canadian Provinces
For full-time employees working an average of 39.3 hours per week, this translates to a gross weekly income of $675.96 before taxes and deductions. Paid biweekly, this equals $1,351.92 per paycheck. Over a year (26 pay periods), minimum wage workers in Ontario can expect to earn approximately $35,149.92 before tax, but will take home about $29,026 after deductions, based on estimates from Weathsimple’s income tax calculator.
For newcomers, especially those without a job offer, surviving on minimum wage can be challenging but provides a starting point while settling in and securing accommodation.
