Nearly 50% of the total Canada PR invites via nomination offered by Ontario in 2018 was for Express Entry candidates. This has been revealed by the latest report by OINP - Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program.
Just 36% of the nominees possessed a job offer in Ontario before receiving the nominations. Also, just 3 of the 8 non-business streams that offered nominations in 2018 need a job offer.
OINP has 3 streams that are aligned with the federal Express Entry stream. These also do not specify job offer in their other eligibility criteria.
The Human Capital Priorities Stream has however in-built flexibility. This permits it to target candidates in Express Entry based on the labour market needs of the province.
Other OINP streams also offered nominations in 2018 without mandating a job offer. These are the Ph.D. Graduate and the Master’s Graduate streams.
The 3 streams of Ontario aligned with Express Entry have been particularly active in 2018. They offered totally 2, 053 invitations for a nomination from Ontario.
The HCP stream is dynamic from the very beginning of 2019. It offered 1, 493 Canada PR invites in the draw that was held on 14 January 2019.
