Canadian immigration – Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP)

Human Capital Priority Stream nominates the individuals who have qualified for Citizenship and Immigration under Canada’s Express Entry pool after checking the education, employment, and suitability records. This check ensures that they are ready and effective for the labour market of Ontario.

How does the Stream work?

Before applying to the Human Capital Priorities Streams, one must have received the PT Notification of Interest from Ontario through the MyCIC account. The application must be received by OINP within 45 days after this notification is issued otherwise they will not be further entertained. You will be eligible to OINP under this stream if you are a refugee claimant or not accepted into the Express Entry Pool.

Remember: Application will be non-refundable at any point of the application under any circumstances.
For any queries please send your CV at wecare@immigrationexperts.pk. This assessment is completely free of cost and we will respond back in two working days.

If the candidate is identified eligible then he will receive PT notification on MyCIC account which will invite him to apply to OINP for the nomination.
