Is your work permit supported by an LMIA? Or are you on an open work permt (PGWP)?

How many points do you have under Express Entry?

You should figured out how many points you have under Express Entry and complete the necessary preparatory activities (e.g. take IELTS, get ECA).

Based on the information you have provided, you don't qualify for the Ontario program at this time. They have stopped issuing invitations to all but a small category of applicants. Ontario won't start issuing invitations to all applicants again until much later this year.

More than 450.

As of now only those with 450 or more points have been selected.

The answer is "no". You don't have an LMIA.
