I am having issues in paying for my OINP Application fee. I was deducted already and no change in status. I can’t even make another payment because it keeps sending me an error message. I decided to send an email to Ontarionominee@ontario.ca, also didn’t get any automated email. What do I do cause I’m running out of time.

Good Day,
Can I use strong support letters instead of proof of funds ? Where I am right now I am in no position to ever get that kind of proof of funds required but I have all other documents ready.

Hello experts,

I have one question - I got NOI from Ontario and I have submitted my application and that is in-progress but unfortunately my work permit is going to expire next month. Can I leave Canada and once I get the nomination and eventually PR, I will come back to Canada.
Is this the right option?
Do you recommend anything else?

Thank you for your time. Looking forward to hearing from you.

THIS IS A RECEIPE FOR DISASTER. THIS IS WHAT THEY CALL YOUR DEGREE NOT ALIGNING WITH YOUR NOC CODE. WELL WHAT DID THEY EQUATE YOUR PHARMACY DEGREE TO WITH WES?

You are fine. There is no such degree specific to Pharmacy Technician. Your bachelor's degree is Pharmacy whereas your experience is as a Pharmacy technician and if you declared the latter as the NOC, and OINP notified an interest for you to apply under that NOC then I don't see anything wrong why you won't be nominated.

Wanted to check similar case as mine:
NOI received: 30 Nov 2023
Application OINP HCP (Healthcare) submitted: 11 Jan 2024
Status Changed from Submitted to Assessment: 17 Jan 2024
DIP: ??
Decision:??

My application hasn't changed since 17 Jan. I am already nearing the 90 day HCP average processing time cut-off, so was wondering how other similar applications are doing. Has OINP ever extended decisions way beyond their published processing times?

I submitted my bank statement and my application is still in the assessment stage, but I was going through the OINP site today and found out about the bank letter. However, I have my bank account from the US but can't get a bank letter from the bank because I am not physically in the country I’ve called the bank as well as branches but I was told that I must be present at the bank to get the bank letter in person. I am thinking of writing an LOE with a picture of my bank card, and its expiration date highlighting recent transactions I have made with my ATM in Canada.
What do I do in this situation I wanted to submit it as a web form if I could get it.

Hi,

Its about OINP(HCP stream) - under FSW category. Received NOI on 8th Feb 2024 in EE.

Inside "Your Required Documents ".

"Applicant Consent (Mandatory)"
Provide a signed copy of your Applicant Consent Form. If applicable, this form must also be signed by your spouse and dependents (aged 16 and over).

I see this section after I changed the ans of 'Is your family member accompanying you to Ontario?' Yes to 'NO'. Why I did because I did not include spouse in EE also, so I want to maintain same in OINP - HCP(FSW category). Currently we both are in Ontario on PGWP(mine), SOWP.

I understand that I need to upload extra consent form, with spouse signature in it.

is this the right letter I need to use?

Thanks.

Hi please how did your unaccompanied spouse sign the consent form??

Quick question if you are a permanent resident via Provincial Nominee program. can you move to another province once you got your PR? I've heard that you need to stay atleast 2 years so that you can contribute but what will be the implications if I move to another province? will they revoke my PR since they already have a final decision? thanks in advance for the reply

I have some doubts in oinp hcp from lmia exempt

• Do you have a job offer in Ontario? I selected NO, since i am lmia exempt
• Is your job offer from the employer named on current work permit
  • Employer name is written on WP
  • But if click yes, it says which noc is written - but NOC not there on WP
• Was your current work permit issued under the circumstances described in paragraph 204(a) or (c) or in section 205 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations?

Any help appreciated

Hi

My score was 473 but I improved my Celpip and my current score is 501. I have submitted our OINP application under HCP Tech draw but for more than a month it has not moved from ‘Submitted’ stage. My work permit expires in August and if I dont get PR or atleast AOR before that I would need to leave.
Is it a good idea to max out score to 501 and update EE profile hoping to target a STEM or general draw. Will an updated profile with 501 CRS make me ineligible for OINP nomination since the Tech cut off at was at 481? Will my current OINP application be rejected if I update the EE profile now with an improved CELPIP?

Please guide

Thank you!

Thank you!

Your best option might be to apply for a visitor visa now so that you can get an additional six months after your work permit expires. The truth is that OINP double-checks everything, so you'll need to send the updated score to OINP. If you choose to do this, wait until your documents progress to the Assessment stage. Also, with the current score, 501 might be low for the upcoming STEM and General draws. Since you've already started the process, patience will be key.

Hello everyone.

For Oinp I submitted my scanned photograph in a PDF format. May I know if a pdf format for a photograph is allowed?

To be on the safe side, I submitted my photograph in jpeg / .jpg format through the web form to Oinp. I received a reply from Oinp saying my response is pending review.

May I know if pdf format is acceptable and do they review the documents sent through web form when needed?
