Ontario issues 360 NoIs in the largest French-speaking Skilled Worker draw

In the largest ever French-speaking Skilled Worker (FSSW) stream draw held on May 22, Ontario issued Notifications of Interest to 360 Express Entry candidates. This number is more than the combined total of all the invitations issued through the French-speaking Skilled Worker (FSSW) stream draws held by the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) so far this year. With the latest draw, the total number of NOIs issued through FSSW this year has reached 549.

The invited candidates were those who had submitted their Express Entry profiles between May 22, 2018 and May 22, 2019. This immigration stream does not require the candidates to have minimum points. However, they need to have a minimum of Canadian Language Benchmark 7 in French and 6 in English to qualify.
