On October 27, Ontario invited 1,406 Express Entry candidates with a professional background in tech.

Ontario invited candidates who may be eligible for . They needed to have a profile in the聽聽with a聽 score between 455 and 467.

In addition, candidates need one year of work experience in one of the following occupations:

  • Computer and information systems managers ( 0213);
  • Computer engineers (NOC 2147);
  • Database analysts and data administrators (NOC 2172);
  • Software engineers and designers (NOC 2173);
  • Computer programmer and interactive media developers (NOC 2174); or
  • Web designers and developers (NOC 2175).

罢丑别听听(翱滨狈笔) says candidates who cannot demonstrate work experience in one of these occupations will be refused. Also, invited candidates with foreign education may have to submit an Educational Credential Assessment so the OINP can verify that their education is equivalent to a Canadian bachelor鈥檚 degree or higher.

Those who received an invitation now have 45 calendar days to submit their application for Ontario鈥檚聽听(笔狈笔).

Those who receive the nomination from Ontario will automatically get an additional 600 CRS points toward their overall score in the Express Entry system. This boost effectively guarantees that the successful candidates will receive an聽聽(ITA) in a聽subsequent round of invitations. This goes for anyone who gets a provincial nomination from any Express Entry-aligned PNP.

This is Ontario鈥檚聽聽of the year. In the first draw, more than聽1,100 candidates were invited to apply聽for the provincial nomination.

Last year, Ontario nominated 1,996 Express Entry candidates through its Human Capital Priorities stream. About 20 per cent of nominations went to candidates with work experience or job offers as software engineers, computer programmers, interactive media developers and聽others.

How the Human Capital Priorities Stream leads to permanent residence

Once you have decided you want to immigrate to Ontario, one of your options is to create a profile in Canada鈥檚聽.

Express Entry is an application management system for three federal economic-class immigration programs:聽,听, and聽.

Express Entry candidates聽are ranked according to the聽聽based on their education, work experience, age, and language proficiency in English or French.

You can just apply directly through the Express Entry system, and skip the PNP process. However, some people with lower CRS scores may opt for a PNP since receiving the nomination is worth 600 points, more than enough to be invited in a given Express Entry draw.

Through the OINP, Ontario invites Express Entry candidates who may be eligible for the Human Capital Priorities Stream to apply for a provincial nomination.

Applying for a provincial nomination is not the same as applying for聽. If you successfully get the provincial nomination from Ontario, you can then use it to apply for permanent residence from the federal government.

Once you get approved for immigration by the federal government and complete the landing process, you are officially a Canadian permanent resident.
