any medical practitioner applying or applied for Ontario PNP

[lartoyak]

happy new year peeps!

I got my notification of interest 2days ago. I am a doctor currently practicing in Nigeria which is a regulated profession. Please, I need a clarification. Do I need to have a practicing license from Ontario medical regulatory body before I can apply or that is a requirement for those already working as a doctor in Ontario?
I am really confused because I have limited time to submit my documents. Somebody please help!!!

No, you don't need a Canadian license.

Regulated Professions
The following professions are regulated in Ontario. To work in a regulated profession, you must be registered by the appropriate regulatory body. You may be able to work in a related field without a licence, but you should first check with the regulatory body to understand what restrictions exist. It is illegal to use the job title restricted to regulated professions without a licence or certificate from the appropriate regulatory body.

I had visited Ontario, I showed an application for a job and two doctors who are my friends and live there wrote letters supporting my application

Yes you can apply for PR even without a license but you can not practice if you do not have a license. If you have a job offer, they will ask for your license anyway. If you do not have a job offer you can still apply for PR if you have been invited.
