8 J3 R9 E' R6 ^1 f& p. }- Z4 ZWe are writing to inform you that as of August 27, 2015, the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) will not be accepting new applications for all streams and categories until January 27, 2016. " P& } U, U( | s7 A

We are pausing application intake for AINP because it is oversubscribed, with approximately 10,000 applications awaiting assessment and hundreds more being submitted each month.

The demand for AINP far exceeds the 5,500 nomination certificates allotted by the federal government for the 2015 calendar year. Continuing to accept new applications to the program is not fair to those already in the queue or to individuals in the process of applying.
