Yes, you can.... but you have 14 days to complete the application.... therefore, you should find an employer that agrees to sponsor you, and fills the Employer Form, within the next 2 weeks.
OINP - Employer Job Offer : Foreign worker stream
- Thread starter NAS29
- Start date
Nominee can get CRS 50 points for NOC A/B and 100 points for NOC 0 if he or she gets closed work permit. I am not sure of one year experience after closed work permit. If it requires one year experience under closed work permit, it doesn't have merit.
Please see following link.

If you have an employer that is willing to fill the form, you can make your application for that employer. Once you get nominated, you should change your work and start working with that employer. The certificate of nomination comes with a Work Permit Suppor Letter that you have to use to get a new closed work permit with the employer that sponsored you.
That is if you apply via Express Entry under CEC. With one year of experience in Canada and LMIA job offer, you will have CRS 50 points for NOC A/B or 100 points for NOC 0.
Closed work permit which nominee is available to apply with work permit support letter also works. Close work permit is LMIA - exemption.
Awesome!
Are you positive? I have an employer (Kind, great guy) who is ready to offer all forms and supporting documents in less than a week.
Did you get PR thru this stream? could you please send me such a link if anything?
Much appreciated.
No, I didn't get PR yet, I am half of way... (in my sign you have a detail)
If your application is successful, you will receive a Nomination Approval Letter and a work permit support letter.... those papers are closed to the employer filled the Employer Form. All is explained here: http://www.mri.gov.on.ca/repository/oinp_en_worker.pdf. If you read point 6.2 explain the conditions of nomination and states:
"Your nomination is subject to the following conditions until you receive permanent resident status:
1. You must continue to demonstrate on a reasonable basis an intention to reside in Ontario; and
2. You must be employed in the approved employment position as of the date of nomination if you are already working for your employer in the approved employment position, or if you are not, on the date that you obtain a work permit and begin working for your employer in the approved employment position.
• The conditions of your employment must remain consistent with those set out in the approved employment position, which include, but are not limited to the approved wage, the duties of the position, the hours of work, and any other terms of employment set out in the job offer letter.
• Section 6.2.1 below outlines your obligations if there are changes to the conditions of your job offer, or your employer offers you a promotion, or you are terminated."
I think people still confused about the requirement of the stream:
https://www.ontario.ca/page/oinp-employer-job-offer-foreign-worker-stream
To apply for this stream, both you and employer will need to meet all the requirements in the link above.
There are few important points for employee requirements like NOC code, the median wage... as well as employer requirements like revenue, fulltime employee numbers, recruitment effort...

So if an Employer processed a LMIA position previously, isn't it same level of Employer information and requirement which was provided to Service Canada previously?
Secondly, I am not privy to specific Employer details submitted during LMIA, is it possible for you to point specific requirement changes?
Thanks buddy. While I do have LMIA+8 band IELTS but I am not youth, so my CRS points are not good enough to get direct Federal ITA. So, I think there are 2 options for me..1. gain experience thru CEC and apply thru federal ITA once CRS gets better. 2. Try to register again when this stream opens and let this process happen in parallel while I am gaining work experience points. I mean whichever process happens sooner to get PR.
Is my understanding correct?
Hi All,
I am able to secure a place in yesterday's program. I have 14 days to submit the documents. but my question is my employer does not support any of the detail (Except offer letter). but I can obtain some details from my colleagues. Do you guys suggest going ahead with the application. ? I have completed 2 years of 6 months in Canada and have a 1-year future work permit from now. Thank you. please advise at the earliest.

Hi! I need your advice everyone. I am on my term 3 student permit right now. however, an employer offered me an lmia for two years stay in the company. this means i need to change my student permit to work permit. is this lmia an assurance for me to apply for PR after two years? the lmia job that the employer offered to me is an NOC level C. should i proceed with my student permit with PGWP after or grab the lmia offer now? thanks
