Alberta Issues Over 1,300 Invitations in September 2025 Immigration Draws
The Alberta Advantage Immigration Program (AAIP) has had a busy September, inviting more than 1,300 skilled candidates to apply for provincial nomination. With demand rising across healthcare, construction, agriculture, aviation, and other high-priority fields, Alberta continues to use its immigration program to address labour shortages and attract talent.
Key Highlights from September AAIP Draws
Between September 2 and 10, 2025, Alberta conducted seven separate draws, issuing a total of 1,376 Invitations to Apply (ITAs). This marks one of the most active periods for the AAIP this year.
The largest draw occurred on September 4, when 891 candidates received invitations through the Alberta Opportunity Stream—the province’s most popular pathway, which consistently attracts the highest number of applications.
Here’s a quick summary of the draws:
| Date | Stream | Invitations | Cut-off Score |
| Sept. 10, 2025 | Alberta Express Entry – Priority Sectors (Aviation) | 30 | 50 |
| Sept. 9, 2025 | Alberta Express Entry – Priority Sectors (Health Care) | 70 | 64 |
| Sept. 8, 2025 | Alberta Express Entry – Priority Sectors (Construction) | 121 | 61 |
| Sept. 5, 2025 | Alberta Express Entry – Priority Sectors (Agriculture) | 71 | 48 |
| Sept. 4, 2025 | Alberta Opportunity Stream | 891 | 56 |
| Sept. 3, 2025 | Dedicated Health Care Pathway (non-Express Entry) | 67 | 44 |
| Sept. 2, 2025 | Dedicated Health Care Pathway (Express Entry) | 126 | 49 |
Alberta’s Priority Streams
In 2025, Alberta announced that its Express Entry Stream would focus on candidates working in priority sectors. These include:
- Healthcare (Dedicated Health Care Pathway)
- Technology (Accelerated Tech Pathway)
- Law Enforcement
- Construction, Agriculture, and Aviation
This sector-specific approach allows the province to better address immediate workforce shortages while aligning immigration with long-term economic growth.
Provincial Nomination Figures for 2025
As of September 11, 2025, Alberta has issued 3,749 nominations out of its total 4,875 allocation for the year. This leaves 1,126 nomination spaces still available for the remainder of 2025.
Here’s where things stand:
| Stream | 2025 Allocation | Nominations Issued | Remaining | EOIs in Pool |
| Alberta Express Entry – Priority Sectors | 405 | 348 | 57 | 4,619 |
| Dedicated Health Care Pathway (Express Entry + Non-EE) | 500 | 353 | 147 | 1,633 |
| Alberta Opportunity Stream | 2,592 | 2,016 | 579 | 41,848 |
The Alberta Opportunity Stream continues to dominate, with nearly 42,000 Expressions of Interest (EOIs) in the pool, making it both the most competitive and the most utilized pathway.
What This Means for Candidates
For skilled workers, particularly those in healthcare, construction, agriculture, aviation, and tech, Alberta’s draws present an excellent opportunity to secure a Provincial Nomination. Since a nomination adds 600 points to your Express Entry CRS score, it almost guarantees an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residency.
Given the large EOI backlog and limited spaces remaining for 2025, candidates should ensure their applications are strategically prepared to maximize their chances of selection.
