OOPNP French-Speaking Skilled Workers Stream

[vensak]

1. you must have CBL 7 or higher from French for each skill (not just overall). This is also minimum requirement to put it as your first language in EE.

2. Same thing for English - you must have CBL 6 for each skill.

3. The amount of 250 to 275 applications under as French speakers is an estimation. It comes from simply calculating 5% from all PNP nomination, that Ontario can issue per year (in 2016 it was 5500 PNP certificates, and 5% is 275). This can look as very small number, but also the number of people that can meet all conditions is rather small.

4. If your application is OK - it means that they assess it and they will be satisfied that it meets all criteria (with check, calls or additional documents). They will then issue you nomination.

This is up to you. You can study alone using all kind of learning material that you can find online or you can assign to the French language class. Depends what you prefer.
CBL 7 in French is between B2 and C1. At that level you can watch movies in French or use it in your work to communicate.

Guys the draw is out !!!

 

[vensak]

Yes, congrat to everybody that got their iTA today. For those that still wait their nomination, head up. Ontario is working on the remaining files for sure.

Hello Redlar,

You should not be far from a nomination . In fact, they have started processing your application, which is now at the second stage and awaiting for an analyst to check it out for "accuracy". This is probably the last step. They might contact you if additional information is deemed necessary or you will just received the golden email: nomination

Wish you the very best!

Anyone got ITA today?

 

[julientran]

I received my nomination certificate yesterday and I'm about to click the button to submit my PR application then I just noticed that I have translated my birth certificate for OINP, but CIC is not asking for it.
Should I add it to LOE or it is not necessary?? I just don't want to receive an ADR or anything to delay it, but if it is not required, I will submit without it.

Thanks

Hello All!
Congratulations to all who got ITAs yesterday.
Another journey begins now
So we woke up today to find an email from CIC to check our EE account for updates.
Logged in to find the "continue app" or "decline" button.
Continue application leads to a bunch of forms that we were expecting, so no issues there.
But we cannot find the "ITA letter". It's not in the messages and it's not in the email.
I understand this is a standard .pdf that we are supposed to receive? It's important that we have that as the clinic is insisting on it for the medical.
Can we expect to receive the ITA letter separately or is this a system glitch?
Anyone has similar experience?
thanks
nerd.

You will receive ITA under your EE profile (same one where you have received nomination). The upper one now is for PR application itself. There is no accept button. Just continue (to fill in everything needed and then to pay and submit) or to decline.

Hi Guys

I got my ITA yestreday and i will be ready to submit my eAPR on Saturday 06/01, as my meds exam are schedule for tomorrow. But I didn't yet get my nomination certificate. is it mandatory to upload it, knowing that it is OINP itself which gives the nomination and the additionnal points through the CIC account of the applicant ?

Thanks for the advice

 

[vensak]

No the paper certificate is mandatory. Indeed it is Ontario itself that is adding those 600 points. It is just a plus to add it as well.

guys can someone help me with the Additional Documents Request regarding intention to reside in Ontario. I already submitted one when submitting the application. Now they want another one with leads or opportunities etc... I have not applied to any job since i know that usually employers don't shortlist applicants from outside Canada. Any advise on how to approach this is appreciated.

You should apply for some (preferably use those that you do not really want to work with). it is an excercise just for the sake of applying for job. It does not matter if you were rejected or never answered. It is your proof that you are doing steps to prepare yourself to immigrate. Another option is to attend some preparation webinars for Ontario.
You can still do that now (then you just need copy of mails where you were sending out your resume or you tried to contact some job hunters).
