We recognize that applicants may experience delays obtaining information from third-parties. If you are unable to submit a required document due to the COVID-19 outbreak, please continue to submit your application and include a detailed explanation letter as to why you are unable to provide a required document and any supporting information. We will consider all relevant information when reviewing your application and may provide additional time to submit the required documentation.
If you have an application under an employer job offer stream (foreign worker, international student, in-demand skills) please note that the OINP intends to reach out to employers to assess the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on employment conditions, as explained in the section for employers below. You will be contacted if the OINP requires further information regarding your application following this review.

Attention employers
Impact of COVID-19 on employer job offer streams: foreign worker, international student, in-demand skills
Permanent full-time position required
In order to be nominated, an applicant must have a job offer for an employment position that has been approved by the OINP. In order to be approved the employment position must meet all prescribed employer and position criteria. This includes demonstrating that the job offer is for a permanent, full-time position that meets minimum program wage criteria (median or low wage).
We cannot approve an application if an employee has been terminated and the employment relationship no longer exists.
Application submitted to OINP but not processed – notice requirement where material change
Whether you are an applicant or an employer, you are required under subsection 13(5) of the Ontario Immigration Act, 2015, to promptly notify the OINP of any material change to your application. For employers, this includes material changes to the employment positions that are the basis of the job offer streams.
In order to facilitate this notice requirement, we will be reaching out to all employers to confirm that job offers/employment positions still meet program criteria (for example, they are permanent, full-time, meet minimum program wage criteria).
Effect of employer response on application
No change in position
If an employer indicates that there are no changes to a job offer/employment position (continues to be permanent, full-time, meets program wage requirement, etc.), the OINP will continue to assess the application.
Position eliminated or employment terminated (job loss)
If an employer indicates that the job offer/employment position is no longer available due to the position being eliminated or employment terminated, the application cannot be approved. The application will be determined to be incomplete and the application fee will be refunded.
Position affected by temporary layoff only (job start date delayed or hours reduced)
If an employer indicates that a job offer/employment position has been affected by a COVID-19 related temporary layoff under the Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA) but confirms that it otherwise continues to meet program criteria (permanent, full-time, meets program wage requirement, etc.) we will hold the application for a period of up to 90 days.
Application approved and employed foreign national nominated
Notice requirements: nomination approved
Nominees and employers with approved employment positions were advised in their approval letters that the approval was conditional upon the nominee continuing to be employed in the approved employment position throughout the nomination period (i.e. until permanent residence).
