I hope this post will help people who, like me, have a pending PR application and are living in Ontario without OHIP. In OHIP website, under the eligibility criteria, it says:



  • have applied for permanent residence, and Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has confirmed that:
    • you meet the eligibility requirements to apply
    • you have not yet been denied
I went to Service Ontario but they said they need the CoPR to approve OHIP. So I sent an email to oerc@ontario.ca with l passport scans and GCMS notes stating that my eligibility is passed. It took around 7 weeks to get a reply from our assigned case worked who asked us to fill up the OHIP registration forms and provide further information such as current immigration status. OHIP approval letter came after a week.

Thanks for sharing. Did you have to send the following ?


  • a copy of your eligibility assessment or transaction record from ServiceOntario outlining the reason(s) you were denied OHIP coverage
