OINP International Student stream is not part of Express Entry stream. While filling the Express Entry profile, when you are asked if you have been nominated by any province, you have to say "No", and when you are applying for PR, mention that in an LOE that you were nominated by OINP but for international students stream which you can't claim the points for.
I was nominated by OINP International Student Stream as well, and I did the exact thing that I wrote here, got my COPR a couple of days ago.

Thanks for replying. So there is not 600 points to EE then When did you started applying OINP? How long does the whole process taking? I dont really understand whats AOR, IP2 or PPR. So is COPR means you got the PR card already? Did you apply through EE or paper application after nominated? And may I ask what's your language exam scour?

Thanks again.. All these thing gives me headache lol

OINP is a LOOOOONG tedious process here is my OINP timeline roughly:
Company filed pre-screen application: August 2015
Pre-screen Approved: Around may 2016
OINP Nomination approved: November 2016
PR Application submitted: March 2017
Still waiting for PR application to complete LOL

While waiting for OINP, i had enough points to apply for Express Entry, you can see my Express Entry timeline in the signature.
COPR = Confirmation of Permanent Residence, I am yet to do a formal landing and get the card, but the process is done.
Everything else you mentioned are stages in Express Entry PR application.

OINP has traditional (paper-based) PNP streams, and express entry streams.... the international student+job offer stream is a non-express entry stream. So it has a different forum (this one is specifically express entry).

https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/forums/provincial-nomination-program-immigration.6/

Note that if you are eligible, you can apply to both the traditional PNP program, and one of the express entry programs. EE is obviously faster, but some people like to have the back-up...

Hi,

I would like to ask you if you had to do any English proficiency test in order to apply for P.R under international student stream with job offer.

I am not sure as that application was done by my lawyers and I did CELPIP around the same time to get more points in express entry and told my lawyers the score so they can update oinp application.
Going through the requirements, it appears that Language test is not required, but please confirm it with somebody else.

So can I apply for OINP and EE at the same time? Wouldn't it be a problem?

Thanks

Hi,
I was looking for some answers and found this post. I have a small query regarding OINP as mentioned below.
I'm already working in Ontario for one year on an open work permit which is going to expire in OCt2019, I'm thinking to go for OINP due to my low scores for EE. My question is since I'm already working and if I want to apply for OINP what my employer needs to do to facilitate me in this process?

Thanks

Thank you for the links.
When I joined the company I was hired as the "Jr. Web Developer. Just got promoted and given a promotion letter from HR with the job title "Web Developer". My question is do I need a newly revised job offer letter from HR that should have my new job title for OINP purpose? Thanks

Yes - you need a revised letter. Also make sure you meet the minimum wage requirements.

I'm eligible to apply under the *Employer Job offer - International Students* stream. If I receive
a Notification of Interest which will give an additional 600 pts. My question is...Can't we just apply through EE which is faster than the paper-based application? Please advise
