Hi Sarah,

did you get any call before your nomination from the officer? also did they ask you anything regarding your restoration status? im on my restoration status too.... and lastly do you know if we can apply for work permit based on oinp nominee??

thanks and congratulations on your nominee.

Hi

no they did not called me while I was on restoration, they called me while I was on implied status. I have consulted a very good leyer and ex immigration officer and unfortunately the answer is ni, If you already have recieved visitor visa or have applied for visitor visa, even after oinp we cannot apply for work permit, its either PR or gonhome situation

Once you renew your passport, you need to update it in your EE profile and inform OINP via the "Change in personal information" form.

Not sure man! My work permit is expiring in February 2017. I had followed up via email and fax a couple of times last month and this month and mentioned about my work permit expiry.
 
Hi guys I'm new to this forum, I had a few questions if you lot could help me out with. So i've received my AOR aug 18th (2016), like most of you here. But i see a lot of ppl who are on the verge of getting nominated or nominations get asked for additional documents. so basically my question is that i stopped work in march as my work permit extension was rejected. when i sent my complete package out in feb (2016)i had more than $13k as proof of funds, but since then they have dropped, but say if they ask for bank statement in the coming months or so can i just have the funds xfer'd then ( i.e. when and if they ask for additional documents like bank statement), as my parents are supporting me financially for me to get my PR. Or would that put me in a precarious situation? because i feel like maintaining the balance throughout this whole process doesn't seem viable as one I'm not working and am on a visitor permit, along with the long unknown wait times of pnp. Thanks for your help. Salman
 
Hello folks!

I have been a silent observer of this forum since long and it has been a great help so far. First of all, I want to thank all of you who have participated here and have shared their knowledge/experiences and selflessly helped hundreds of applicants.

I received an ECA request from OINP this afternoon advising me to respond to their query within 15 calendar days. I had provided them a copy of my WES with the initial application but had not authorized "Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program, MCIIT” as a recipient of my WES report and hence they requested for the same today.

Thanks for getting back to my query,i appreciate your help a lot. So my question is when did you submit these documents, when you were sending out hard copy documents after getting your PT notification or just before nomination they asked for additional documents and you provided all that. I ask you that is because i collected all these documents (letter of support/explanation from my parents, along with the wire order receipts from the overseas bank, and 6 month bank statement when i was sending my package after my PT notification) i did this and got my aor.
So lastly say if i keep my finances below the $12k limit till maybe they ask for additional documents which leads to nomination and then i replenish it, through my parents support letter, explanation letter and through my bank statements, it should be all good, immigration wouldn't say something like " oh this guy was below the finance limit and he just topped it once we asked for additional documents"?? Thats a little bit of my concern lol...

Thanks all you guys.
