Atlantic Immigration Program
AIP is employer-led permanent residence in Atlantic provinces. You need a full-time job offer from a designated employer and an endorsement letter before federal PR.
Overview
Four Atlantic provinces
New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador participate. Each province manages endorsements with local criteria.
Settlement plan
You must show that you and your family understand housing, schools, weather, and services — generic copy fails; we personalize with your real research.
How we can help
Atlantic focus
We work through employer designation lists and province-specific settlement resources.
Family files
Spouses and children included with realistic housing and school research for smaller markets.
Employer coaching
We help employers understand endorsement obligations without overpromising timelines to candidates.
Our process
Job offer
Validate designation, wage, and NOC against AIP tables.
Endorsement
Provincial endorsement application with settlement plan.
PR to IRCC
Work permit support letter if applying for interim work, then PR application.
Landing
Atlantic-specific settlement follow-up and SIN/health orientation.
Frequently asked questions
Is AIP faster than PNP?
Timelines vary by province and employer readiness. We quote realistic ranges, not viral TikTok promises.
Can I switch employers?
Generally you need a new endorsement — treat job changes as high-risk without advice.
Do I need a work permit first?
Some clients use a work permit support letter while PR processes; eligibility depends on the offer and province instructions.
