Ontario PNP Invites 773 Individuals In The New Draw

In the new PNP draw, Ontario removes the CRS cap. Invited candidates with CRS scores of 455 and up are sought by Ontario's newest Human Capital Priorities.

Ontario invited 773 Express Entry candidates to apply for a provincial nomination in approved occupations on February 22.

Candidates who may be qualified for the Express Entry Human Capital Priorities Stream were asked to apply by the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) (HCP). These applicants needed to have an Express Entry profile with a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 455 to 600.

Candidates from Ontario with high test scores are now eligible to apply.

Since September 2021, Canada has not held an Express Entry draw for anyone other than PNP candidates. Immigration Minister Sean Fraser has not offered a firm date for resumed draws for Canadian Experience Class (CEC) and Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) candidates, but he recently promised business leaders that it would be in the "near future."

Only PNP candidates have been invited since then. Candidates in Ontario with Express Entry scores of greater than 467 were not invited to file for a nomination in 2021. As a result, some contenders attempted to lower their pool ratings in order to receive an Ontario nomination.

Canada expects to bring in 83,500 immigrants this year through both Express Entry-aligned and base PNP categories, according to the updated 2022-2024 Immigration Levels Plan. The new targets are higher than those set by the government in the previous levels plan, which called for 81,500 PNP immigrants in 2022 and 83,000 in 2023.

PNPs allow Canadian provinces to invite immigrants who meet their local labour market demands. Candidates who get a provincial Express Entry nomination are almost assured to receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence in Canada.

Concerning Express Entry

Express Entry is a method that allows persons to apply for permanent residence with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada directly (IRCC). It is not an immigration program in and of itself, but it oversees the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Canadian Experience Class, and Federal Skilled Trades Program applications.

You can build an Express Entry profile if you are eligible for one or more of these programs. After you've uploaded all of your documents, you'll be given a score based on your work experience, education, age, and English or French language proficiency, among other factors.

The IRCC runs a draw every two weeks and issues ITAs to the top scorers, allowing individuals to apply for permanent residency in Canada.

So, do you want to move to Ontario this year and get the most sought-after Ontario PNP? Now is the time to join the Ontario PNP and take the first step toward a brighter future.
