Ontario introduces a new immigration screening system
And it will also soon open the streams for which the acceptance of applications has been suspended.
As early as this week, a new selection process for Ontario's provincial program will go into effect. The province is introducing an Expression of Interest (EOI) system for certain streams. The amendments to Ontario's immigration law were introduced on March 15.
The expression of interest system is introduced for the following streams:
- foreign qualified professionals who have received a job offer;
- specialists in high-demand occupations who have received a job offer;
- Canadian graduates who received a job offer;
- Canadian graduates with a master's degree;
- Canadian graduates with Ph.
No applications are currently being accepted for these streams, but the province will resume acceptance as soon as the new system is up and running. An exact date has not yet been given.
How will the selections go?
The Expression of Interest System is a system for registering for a provincial program. The candidate shows their desire to immigrate to a particular province. This system is used in many other provincial programs as well.
Ontario will open its web portal so that applicants can register with the Expression of Interest system and confirm that they qualify for the immigration program. You must do this before you can apply for a provincial nomination.
