Guys, if I already have an ITA and a province is interested in nominating me, are there any benefits in rejecting my ITA and accepting the nomination instead?

Does the nomination make the post-ITA process "safer" or faster in any way? Or am I better off with my direct ITA?

Keep in mind that I intend to settle in the province that is nominating me anyways.

Its the other way around, Direct ITA is faster and Once you get PR, you are free to live and work anywhere in Canada.
 
PNP is safer, if you make a mistake on your app, you get a chance to correct it while maintaining the 600 points given to you by the PNP. However the direct ITA is faster, it skips the whole PNP application step that you have to go through before applying to federal.
 
I know that OINP is not open for this year yet. I have a query regarding the program. I will get the desired (400+) points in June of this year. Say for ex: If it opens in feb end, will it be open till June? or, its just open and shut case? It's open for a day or a week in feb and gets filled immediately. I know that no one can judge... but, any suggestions/views based on past experience is appreciated.
 
Definitely direct ITA is much better and faster....
I wish I had a score to hope for direct ITA and would never go for PNP route
