    Invariance principles for finite time Markov processes are extended to infinite processes. Under ergodicity conditions convergence of random walks to a diffusion is studied in \(\bar d\)-metric and the new notion of \(\alpha\)-congruence (a sort of `isomorphism' between processes introduced by D. S. Ornstein and B. Weiss in 1989) explains the closeness between the processes under consideration.
