Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP)
The AIP is a business initiative that offers to foreign nationals who have job offers in the Atlantic area, have been approved by an Atlantic province, and who meet the basic requirements for education, work experience, and language fluency. The method for handling applications for permanent residence submitted by applicants in the AIP is outlined in this section.
Benefits and Impact of the Atlantic Immigration Program
In the Atlantic area, employers, and immigrants have all considered the AIP to be a massive success. It continues to grant thousands of immigrants permanent resident status each year, meeting the demands of local employers while supporting the population, the labor force, and economic growth.
