Hello There,

i have been nominated by Ontario in April 2020 and i am still in the process of gathering my documents (pcc delayed) to submit the express entry application by end of August 2020.

I read somewhere that pnp nominated application will take more time than normal Express Entry application. Is it true?

Thanks!
Dont think so. The timelines are quite similar I believe.

I think probably wherever you read, they would've intended to say, the overall timeline for a PNP route is longer cos the nomination process takes 2-3 months and then, another 6-8 months for the IRCC process. But the flip side you are guaranteed an invite due to the 600 additional points.

A question to you:

I also received nomination last week. I wanted to know if we can use the same set of documents that we used for the PNP application? Especially the reference letters, cos a few months difference wouldnt make a big difference. I can attach the latest payslips to prove active employment but do we really need a second set of reference letters from supervisors?

I am not sure.. I am still waiting for my wife police clearances from India. If possible get the letter again to be on the safe side.

Needs expert’s help! When we fill OINP form it their portal, there is a question that-

If you ever submitted in an application under provincial nomination program from Ontario or any other province.

Last year I submitted an expression of interest application for prince Edward island and withdrew it later the same day.

so now in OINP should I say yes or no?

It should be No.

You select yes only if you get Notification of interest and submit your documents afterwards like you want to do for ontario

Hello People,

I am in a serious situation, please help!

Can i update my Bachelor degree completion month/date in CIC profile after getting Notification of interest from OINP?

I recently noticed that there's a month mismatch in my actual degree completion date(Sep-2010) and my CIC profile(Dec-2010). However, in WES report, month of completion is not at all mentioned.

Is ECA report enough to support educational documents while submitting profile to OINP and IRCC after ITA or do I need to add copies of degree as well which may cause trouble if they find out the date difference in degree and profile?

Note: I've Master degree as well, is it okay, if I upload my Master degree only and ignore Bachelor's?

Guys, please help me out!

These will be included. But don’t forget they still haven’t issued nominations to OINP employer job offer foreign worker stream. 1300 candidates registered. Its in process. Those are also going to be included in 2500.

Also don't forget about the 1288 NOI's issued on July 29th. If a general draw happens today, some of those NOI's will be wasted again.

No update yet, submitted on 8th August. Don't expect speedy processing as OINP has to process a ton of applications and they are opening another stream today. I would stick to their official processing timeline of 60-90 days.
