Syed Khan – 20 August 2021,
Ontario immigration has issued 479 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) in its first draw for the provincial Master’s Graduate and Ph.D. Graduate streams. The province issued the ITAs on August 18 through the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP). These Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) operate under Ontario’s EOI system.
The draw saw 402 ITAs issued to Masters Graduate candidates scoring a minimum of 39 points. A further 77 ITAs were issued to Ph.D. Graduates who scored at least 17.
Steps to follow to be considered for either the Masters Graduate or Ph.D. Graduate streams:
- Sign up with Ontario’s e-Filing Portal
- Register an expression of interest for the graduate stream.
- If eligible, the applicant will receive an invitation to apply for the provincial nomination. Candidates need to apply for the nomination within two years of graduating.
- Applicants do not need a job offer to apply for these streams.
Points System:
Points are allotted for the skill level of the job offer as well as the candidate’s Canadian work experience. Other than skill level and work experience, it also takes into account the wage, education, official language ability, and the region in which the applicant has study or work. The province also allocates 10 points at its discretion to respond to labour market needs.
