On January 13, 2022, the Government of Alberta announced the launch of the Accelerated Tech Pathway (ATP) under the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP).
The new program will support Alberta’s Recovery Plan and provide a workforce of the province with a fast track to permanent residence.
Highly skilled tech professionals from across Canada and overseas who have a job offer and want to live and work in Alberta will be fast-tracked and provided permanent residence to solve the labour shortage in the province.

On January 12, 2022, the Government of Canada published new program delivery instructions (PDIs) regarding the “examination before granting permanent residence,”
clarifying that the Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program (AIPP) closed on December 31, 2021, with the expiration of the bilateral agreements.
The Ministerial Instructions (MIs) will expire on March 5, 2022, which grants Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) the authority to continue to intake pilot applications until that time.
As of March 6, 2022, IRCC will accept permanent residence (PR) applications only under the Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP).

On January 12, 2022, the Government of Canada updated the terms for the open work permits under the International Mobility Program (IMP).
On the Government website, the title has changed from “Open work permit” to “Open work permit – General processing and issuance” to illustrate the instructions more clearly.
In addition, IRCC added new instructions, clarifying that “the open work permit holder fee cannot be charged for open work permits issued under section 25.2 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA).”
The new format also makes it easier to find needed information on the website.
