Ontario invited 1186 immigrant candidates to apply for provincial nomination. The invitations were allotted Express Entry applicants with the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score stretching between 453 and 467. The invitations were sent over the Human Capital Priorities Stream of the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP). The called applicants require work experience in any one of the six following targeted professions:
- Software engineers and designers (NOC 2173)
- Computer programmers and interactive media developers (NOC 2174)
- Computer engineers (NOC 2147)
- Web designers and developers (NOC 2175)
- Database analysts and data administrators (NOC 2172)
- Computer and information systems managers (NOC 0213)
What to do after receiving the invitation?
If you have acknowledged invitations, you can submit your application within 45 days. You can achieve 600 additional CRS score points to your total score. That would assure you an invitation to apply for permanent residence in Canada in the consequent Express Entry draw.
