November 30, 2018 – The date the Alberta Opportunity Stream List of Alberta Advanced Education Approved Post-Secondary Credentials goes into effect for Post-Graduate Work Permit holders has been extended to April 1, 2019.
The income threshold requirement was removed as of November 1, 2018. If you submitted an AOS application prior to November 1, 2018, the income threshold criteria will not be applied to your application. You will not be required to meet the minimum income threshold to be eligible for nomination under this stream but you will need to meet all other criteria that were in place at the time that you applied. After candidates have been nominated, the federal government will determine whether candidates are able to support themselves and their families over the long term.
