Disclaimer: This calculator is an unofficial estimation tool based on the published Government of Alberta Worker Expression of Interest points grid (last revised August 7, 2025). It is provided for general information only and is not immigration or legal advice. There is no fixed pass mark: Alberta selects candidates from the EOI pool by pathway, labour market priorities, and monthly nomination allocations, and cut-off scores change with every draw. The AAIP Express Entry Stream also requires a separate federal Express Entry profile with a CRS of at least 300. As of April 7, 2026, Alberta charges a fee to submit a Worker EOI, and profiles remain valid for 12 months. Always confirm the current grid, fees, and draw results on the official AAIP pages at alberta.ca before relying on any score.
