PNP is the route to Canada PR that goes through the provincial and territorial governments.
Recently, three of the provinces in Canada - Alberta, British Columbia, and Manitoba - released the details of the draws held by them under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP).
Holding its seventh provincial draw of 2022, Alberta invited 100 in a round of invitations held on May 19, 2022. Those invited can now apply for being nominated by Alberta for Canadian permanent residence. Alberta PNP is officially the Alberta Advantage Immigration Program (AAIP).

The latest Alberta PNP draw comes under Alberta Express Entry Stream selection. Regularly reviewing the available candidates in the federal Express Entry pool, Alberta PNP selects candidates based on the available information. Selected candidates are invited to submit a complete application to the AAIP.
Factors that increase chances of selection by Alberta PNP include - having a job offer in Alberta, being a graduate of a post-secondary institution in Canada, etc.
From time to time, British Columbia will invite individuals that are registered with the BC PNP to submit their application for a nomination through the province for Canada PR visa.

Targeted invitations might be issued towards supporting the priorities of the BC government.
