From the document I linked to:
All Canadian citizens who have been continuously resident in
Alberta for at least three years.
Permanent residents of Canada who have resided, filed, and
paid income taxes in Alberta for three consecutive years.
Alberta-born children under the age of three.
Albertans serving with the Canadian Forces temporarily
stationed outside of Alberta.
Prisoners will not be eligible for these dividends.
In the case of Canadian citizens who have been Alberta
residents for three years but have not filed their taxes,
registration can be completed at any Alberta registry.
First Nations people, on the same terms as all other Albertans.
