Alberta PNP Self-employed Farmers Stream

For people who show a keen interest in buying land in Alberta, in order to put it to use for development of farming and other practices, the Self-employed Farmers Stream was introduced in the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program. To get eligibility under this stream, not only the intentions of the candidates are put to test, but also their financial net worth is checked to be considerable enough to carry out the work.
