The AISP is an employer-driven stream, and therefore all candidates are expected to obtain a legitimate job offer.

Candidates for the AISP must confirm that they have a job proposal that is:

  • From a preferred company in one of the Atlantic provinces.
  • For the full-time, doubtful job.
  • Skilled or moderate level, i.e., position at skill rank 0, A, B, or C of the NOC.
  • Maintained by a provincial license of endorsement from the province that symbolizes that the job proposal is accurate.
  • Companies in the Atlantic region can correct designation demands on the AIPP Employer Designation sheet.

Candidates to the AISP must describe that they have got work experience for a minimum of 1 year in the last 3 years. This work practice may be non-constant, full-time, but must combine up to a total of 1,560 hours. This work practice must be:

  • In one profession. 
  • Must be paid job.  
  • In a NOC C-level profession.

Candidates must have provided the activities seeded in the lead statement of the NOC information. Canadian practice must have been received while the foreign citizen was allowed to work in Canada as a temporary occupant.

Applicants do not have to be engaged at the time they apply. Work experience gained during study time is allowed, as long as the business hours do not exceed.

Candidates for AISP must prove they have one of the following:

  • A Canadian secondary or post-secondary certification, diploma, or other qualification; or
  • An achieved international educational credential.

Candidates for the AISP must demonstrate language ability equivalent to (CLB) 4.

The following language examinations are recommended for the AISP:

  • IELTS (International English Language Testing System).
  • CELPIP (Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program).
  • TEF.

Language test outcomes must be fewer than 2 years old at the time the request is presented.

Upon immigration, candidates must demonstrate that they will have sufficient income to sustain their families and themselves. The amount varies based on the size of the family and takes into account the relatives of the candidate who are not going to be immigrants.

If the applicant already has a valid work permit and is residing and working in Canada, no documentation is needed.
