ITA for regulated profession (Mechanical Engineer) in Canada

[omsaiom]

Hello Members,

I am a Mechanical engineer by profession.
Mechanical Engineering is regulated profession in Canada.
Do we require pre certification regarding this in case we get ITA.
Cause I got OINP interest later on 4th Dec. but it requires certification from regulatory authority in Ontario.
getting this certification is tedious job and takes time so most probably will no be able to submit my file for OINP.
My CRS score is 460 so I might get ITA in next draw (If it happens on 11th or 18th Dec)
So was confused that do we need such certification in case of ITA as well?

Any help is appreciated.

Best Regards,
Omsaiom

Yes that was related to OINP, this is for ITA.
As I am thinking of rejecting the OINP nomination, but not know about same condition for ITA.
I first thought of adding it in the same thread but since title was related to OINP I could have missed some comments from other person who have nothing to do with OINP.

I am also a mechanical engineer.

For regular ITA you do not need licensing. You will needed it if you want to work as a PROFESSIONAL engineer anywhere in canada but not for getting PR. Once you land in canada you can work as a mechanical engineer but you have to be supervised by a professional engineer until you become one yourself.

For PNP is a different thing because provinces needs you to at least be elegible for licensing prior applying to the provincial program. In saskatchewan this is called MEMBER IN TRAINING.

In my case, as a saskatchewan PNP applicant, i was not able to complete the licensing procedure (it takes at least a year to become a member in training) so i applied as a Technical sales specialist (it fits me perfectly as per my roles) and my application was approved.

Good luck.
