- Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program
When considering where immigrants to Canada might settle, Ontario is typically where most people’s journeys begin.
Nearly 40% of Canadians call Ontario home. Ontario has Canada’s capital, Ottawa, and largest city, Toronto. Ontario is the top Canadian immigrant destination.
Each year, one-third of newcomers settle in British Columbia. Ontario’s job opportunities, high income, and diverse population drew people. Over half of Toronto residents are foreign-born.
Through this program, prospective immigrants with the skills and experience targeted by Ontario can receive a provincial nomination and apply for permanent residence with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
The OINP aims to address skill shortages, encourage investment in Ontario, and help newcomers settle and integrate.
Initially, the Ontario PNP could only nominate 1,000 newcomers. Ontario nominates 8,000 immigrants annually.
Ontario has base and enhanced immigration streams.
Enhanced streams are Express Entry-aligned. This is Canada’s federal immigration system for managing permanent residence applications through its three economic class programs.
The Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) scores candidates. Candidates with the highest ranking can apply for permanent residency.
Ontario has three categories for immigrants:
• Human Capital Category;
• Masters or Ph.D. Category;
• Employer Job Offer Category;
• Business Category.
Skilled workers, including French-speaking skilled workers and tradespeople, fall under the Human Capital Category. It’s also open to foreign nationals who earned their Master’s or Doctorate degrees in Ontario. Candidates need not have been offered employment in order to apply under this heading.
Employer Job Offer Candidates must have a job offer in Ontario from an employer willing to nominate them.
Minimum requirements for Human Capital Category streams:
• You and your family need enough money.
• Must be in Ontario
• Additional Requirements
These programs are not Eligible. Create a profile and register an EOI.
• Masters Graduate Stream: For Ontario Masters graduates
• Ph.D. Graduate Stream: For Ontario Ph.D.s.
Note: Masters and Ph.D. Graduate Streams use Ontario’s EOI system.
Employer Job Offer has three programs:
• Foreign worker stream: for skilled workers;
• International students: Ontario postsecondary graduates;
• In-demand skills stream: agriculture, construction, trucking, and personal support workers.
Minimum Requirements:
• Full-time, permanent job offer in Ontario;
• Must have required work experience, licence, or other credentials;
• Must live in Ontario
• Additional employer requirements (business, revenue, employment).
The Business Category is for those starting or buying an Ontario business. Under Business, only Entrepreneur Stream exists.
Minimum Requirements:
• 2 years of business experience in the last 5 years required.
• Must have a net worth of $800,000 in the GTA or $400,000 outside the GTA.
• Must invest $600,000 if the business is in the GTA or $200,000 if outside the GTA.

• Must manage the business actively
