Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) officially introduced their new Expression of Interest (EOI) system yesterday, 28 April 2021. It is now open to profile submissions for potential Foreign Workers and International Students in the Employer Job Offer Category.
Their other popular In-Demand Skills and Masters Graduate streams will open in the coming weeks.
When applicants enter their profile, they are issued with a score – similar to the express entry profile system. The points are given based on your NOC skill level and type, wage of your job offer, Canadian work experience and NOC skill level, Canadian earnings ($), and highest level of education.
Applicants should have a genuine job offer to enter the program. A language test, high education and wage will increase your score.
