Ontario Provincial Nominee Program has actively invited eligible candidates throughout January 2022 under various nomination streams. The latest provincial draw held recently on January 27 is Ontario’s first Express Entry Skilled Trades stream draw of 2022. It targeted 1,032 Canada Express Entry candidates to apply for provincial nominations.
Ontario invited candidates who entered the federal Express Entry pool between January 27, 2021 and January 27, 2022. These invited candidates qualified for either Federal Skilled Worker Program or Canada Experience Class program. Additionally, no job offers were required to get the invites under the Skilled Trades stream.
They have 45 calendar days to apply for the provincial nomination.
Among the invited candidates included Technicians in Telecom, Construction & Automobile Industry and Contractors/Supervisors in Oil & Gas, Agriculture Industry. They belonged to skilled trade listed in Minor Group 633 or Major Group 72, 73, or 82 under Canada’s NOC.
Earlier this month, Ontario issued invitations to eligible Nurses, Bankers, and Food Service Managers with active Canada Express Entry profiles to apply for provincial nomination.
Qualifying for Canada Permanent Residency with Provincial Nominee Program
The federal immigration department is solely responsible for issuing permanent residency. A provincial nomination may, however, fast-track the total time taken to receive an invitation to apply for Canada Permanent Residency.
Ontario Immigration Nominee Program (OINP) issues provincial nominations to eligible skilled workers under its famous Human Capital Priorities stream. The province also invites candidates already registered in the federal pool under its Tech draw.
Those with provincial nominations like the one from Express Entry Human Capital Priorities (HCP) stream or Ontario Tech Draw or Express Entry Skilled Trades stream will get preferential treatment to obtain Canada permanent residency.
