How do I apply under Ontario Employer Job Offer streams?
The first step is to create a profile on the OINP e-filing portal and register an Expression of Interest (EOI).
It is important to ensure that you are eligible by reading the application requirements for the various streams. The information you provide must be true and accurate at the time of submission. It is however possible for you to update your profile at any time.
When you register an EOI profile, you are entered into a selection pool, similar to Canada’s federal Express Entry pool. You will then receive a score based on your responses. Ontario will invite those with the highest scores to apply for provincial nomination.
Ontario holds regular provincial draws to invite the highest-scoring candidates from the EOI applicant pool. If you are invited, you will receive a notification on the portal and will be required to submit your application within 14 calendar days.
