Skilled worker candidates for the Atlantic Immigration Pilot (AIP) Program must show that they have enough funds to use for settlement in Canada. The amount needed depends on the size of your family. Generally, this includes yourself, your spouse/common-law/conjugal partner and any dependent children who are 21 years old or younger.
Even if your family members intend to remain outside of Canada, you would still need to count them in when calculating the amount required for settlement in Canada.
The amounts are valid from January 01, 2020 to December 31, 2020. The numbers increase slightly each year, ensure that your funds do not go below the required minimum.
Note: New figures will come out in the beginning of 2021, bookmark this page to check again later.
