In what is said to be one of the largest Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) since Canada shut its borders in March, the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) invited 703 candidates registered in the Express Entry pool to apply for a provincial nomination.
Since nominated candidates were registered in the Express Entry pool, they are subjected to be awarded an additional 600 points under a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Subsequently, an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence in upcoming Express Entry draws is guaranteed.

How to get a provincial nomination from Ontario?
OINP’s Human Capital Priorities Stream is the best chance for any foreign skilled worker with at least one year of work experience to get a provincial nomination. The work experience can be gained in Canada or even in one’s home country and it must be in a full-time job experience.
Usually, International students who graduate from any Canadian institution and later gain over one year of work experience on a Post-Graduation Work Permit register themselves under Express Entry system qualify for Canadian Experience Class (CEC). The OINP Human Capital Priorities Stream usually nominates such candidates.
Express Entry is not a visa system but an application management system for three federal immigration programs: Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Canadian Experience Class (CEC), and Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP). Based on a CRS score, the applications are ranked against each other on factors such as age, work experience, education, and proficiency in English or French.
With the target of 7,600 principal applicants for immigration set by the federal government for the OINP, now is the best time to register your profile under Express Entry. Not only OINP but other PNP streams from provincie like Alberta, Manitoba, British Columbia, Prince Edward Island consider Express Entry candidates for a provincial nomination.
