Canada’s most commercial province, Ontario, offers many pathways to immigrants seeking to study, work, and apply for Canada PR.
The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) was launched to address the labour shortage and is one of the major contributors to Canadian economic immigration.
The program regularly looks for immigrants in the Immigration, Refugees, Citizenship and Canada’s Express Entry pool to find eligible candidates who may meet the criteria for any of Ontario’s Express Entry streams.
If you are identified in the pool, you will receive a Notification of Interest (NOI) in your Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) online profile.
It is essential to note that receiving a notification of interest does not mean you qualify for one of the streams.
After receiving a notification of interest (NOI), a candidate may submit an online application within 45 days of receiving a notification to the OINP under which the notification of interest is issued if you qualify under any OINP Express Entry streams.
The OINP issues ITAs to eligible candidates on a weekly basis, with some exceptions.
Ontario needs skilled professionals in various industries and opens high-demand jobs to sustain its economy.

Different Streams to immigrate:
If you plan on immigrating to Ontario, these are the streams you can choose:
Some of the streams under the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program are Base streams and Enhanced streams.
Enhanced streams are those that are aligned with the Express Entry Program. However, Base streams are not aligned with the Express Entry Program.
Candidates who immigrate under the Enhanced stream are required to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI). If they secure 600 points from the PNP calculator, they are highly likely to be invited to apply for Canada PR.
Candidates who want to immigrate under the Base stream are required to apply directly to the Immigration, Refugee, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
If you plan to immigrate to Canada, getting an invitation from the province increases the chance of your application being accepted.
