So, the purpose of the program (AIPP) is to facilitate Canadian companies & employers in the Atlantic region to hire qualified candidates for the jobs they have been incapable to fill locally. These aspirants can be overseas or living inside.

Four provinces in the Atlantic Canada region took part in this program, such as Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland Labrador. Let’s discuss what the categories in the pilot are. There are three programs as;

1- Atlantic International-Graduate Program

2- Atlantic High-skilled Program

3- Atlantic Intermediate-skilled Program

You can only apply to one program at a time, so scoop out more details.

Atlantic Immigration Pilot Requirements

1- Language proficiency

You need to know the requirements for each program. The first thing you need to provide is language proficiency results but don’t worry, Canada’s AIPP accepts a very low ‘IELTS general’ score.

Hence, you need 3.5 in reading, 4.0 in writing, 4.5 in listening, and speaking 4.0 IELTS score as a minimum.

2- Education requirement

Now have a look at education requirements. So the good thing is the minimum qualification required for the pilot is a high school diploma, which is for the Atlantic intermediate skilled program.

But if you’re applying to the Atlantic international-graduate program, you will need at least 2 years of education from a recognized publicly funded institute in Atlantic province.

And if you wish to apply through the Atlantic high-skilled program, then the minimum education requirement is a degree or diploma. And, these credentials, get them assessed from one of their recognized organizations.

3- Work experience

Now move on to the work experience requirement for AIPP Canada. So, for the Atlantic international-graduate program, it requires No work experience. Whereas, for the Atlantic high-skilled category, you must have worked at least one year in the last 3 years.

Similarly, the work experience requirement for the Atlantic intermediate-skilled program is the same. But the work experience you should have from NOC skill level C.

Another requirement applies to the Atlantic graduate program only. And to qualify, you must have lived in one of those provinces for at least 16 months .

4- Proof of Funds for AIPP Canada

5- Job Offer requirement for AIPP Canada

The key factor to be eligible for this pilot is a job offer from a Canadian employer. So, you must have a job offer to apply for one of those three programs under the Atlantic immigration pilot.

Hence, the job must be a full time, which means you will work at least 30 hours per week, and it should be non-seasonal and permanent. And the province where you will work must designate the employer. AIPP Canada’s detailed requirements find on the official website here.

How do I get a job offer from AIPP?

Simultaneously, to get a job offer from an employer in one of those Atlantic Provinces you are interested in moving. So, you can go through the official website of that province.

For example, if you wish to settle down in Nova Scotia, the next you have to visit its official website. Subsequently, you can find a list of designated employers from the province. Now you might wonder, how would I know which employer is hiring currently? Do not worry, here you have a solution.

So, finding this out, select the company name (within the designated employer list) that you think could be the best fit for your NOC. and occupation. Then find that company’s latest job advertisements at;

If the employer is currently hiring, you can apply by submitting your resume. Similarly, if you’re interested in New Brunswick, Newfoundland, or Prince Edward, to do so, go through their official websites.

How to apply in AIPP Canada?

Once you get the job offer, your next step is to develop a settlement plan. To do that, you will need to contact an approved settlement service provider. A settlement plan will help you and your family and just to your new home in Atlantic province.

And if you’re already in Canada, you must work with the settlement service provider in the region where you will be working. You will need to upload your job offer letter to the settlement service provider website, and once you have completed your profile, you will receive a settlement plan.

The settlement plan you will have to submit to your employer as soon as possible because employers will have to send that settlement plan with their endorsement application to the province.

Finally, if they approve the application, you will receive a certificate of endorsement, which is super important to apply for a Canadian PR under the Atlantic immigration pilot.

After receiving an endorsement letter from the province, you need to submit your permanent residency application to the Canadian immigration official website.
