Ontario PNP invites candidates without a job offer

Canada amazes every individual with its unique immigration policies. 

 

One among them is the recent one by 'Ontario Express Entry: Human Capital Priorities Stream.' Now it is possible to immigrate to Canada without a job offer which is contrary to the thoughts of people all around the world. Unlike most countries, Canada offers new opportunities for foreign nationals to immigrate without first landing a job offer. The Canadian immigration system is a world leader as it provides highly versatile and dynamic immigration avenues to individuals who don't have any job offers and are willing to immigrate to Canada. The most common and easy path to immigrate to Canada is the Express Entry system. Along with this, an equally promising path is the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP).

 

Express Entry System 

The most promising path to immigrate to Canada...

Express Entry is the most fastest and easiest immigration system which is based on the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). This CRS will allot scores depending on the human capital factors. In most cases, Express Entry candidates do not require a job offer. But having a job offer will add extra points to the candidate's profile, which will increase the chances to receive the invitation to apply for permanent residence in Canada.

 

Provincial Nominee Program

Excellent immigration pathway to Canada for aspirants without a job offer... 

The Provincial Nomination Program is the optimistic pathway that ensures a balanced distribution of the benefits of immigration throughout Canada. This program allows provinces and territories to set a number of economic immigrants for permanent residence every year. The PNP differs for each province, and each province sets its own nomination requirements. To immigrate to Canada through a PNP, you must first be nominated by the province or territory.

 

How can I immigrate to Canada through OINP without a job offer?

All nine Canadian provinces and two territories participate in the Provincial Nomination Program, including Ontario. The province of Ontario receives one-third of all newcomers to Canada every year. Ontario provides various employment opportunities with high wages, and its diverse population attracts most foreign nationals to migrate and settle permanently. The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) is the most prominent among the PNPs in Canada. Every year it sends more than 8,000 invitations to apply through multiple streams.

 

Ontario Express Entry: Human Capital Priorities Stream

Candidates willing to settle in Ontario without any job offer need to submit an application under the Ontario Express Entry: Human Capital Priorities Stream. The Human Capital Priorities Stream is specifically designed for skilled foreign workers who like to work and settle permanently in Ontario. Ontario Express Entry HCP Stream is specifically designed for eligible candidates having an active profile in the federal Express Entry pool. These candidates should also meet the following criteria:

• Language
• Work experience
• Several other criteria were necessary to enter the provincial labor market.

Hence the job offer is not required, but the candidates need to have an active Express Entry profile and meet the requirements given by Ontario, which includes:

• Having work experience in targeted occupations or sectors
• Invited to apply in this stream

After applying (to get nominated by Ontario and receive a Notification of Interest), the candidates will receive a message through your Express Entry account inviting them to submit an online application to the OINP. The candidates will receive a Nomination Approval Letter if their application is successful. Later on, accepting the nomination in the Express Entry system, applicants will be given 600 additional points towards the Express Entry CRS score. Therefore this will effectively guarantee to receive the ITA to apply for permanent residency with the Government of Canada. In 2021, the Human Capital Priorities Stream is one of the most active Ontario PNP streams, with 4,851 NOIs already issued to Express Entry candidates.
