OINP - Employer Job Offer : Foreign worker stream

[Fonca]

you apply from in-land, right? so why still fall the step to Pre Arrival Services letter? so confused...

Because I can start using all the support services right away. So this letter is a document to allow me to do it.

but I cannot understand why IRCC still send you the Pre-arrival-letter to you since you already in Canada, PAL should only applicable for those who apply for PR outside Canada, right?

I've just received the Pre Arrival Services Letter!
I'm so glad with every single tiny step

What is this letter about? What role does it play? What does it signify. Sample text of it appreciated. I assume it came by email.

While on temporary permit (study, work) you can not use the free services that Canada offers (in-person and online services to help prepare for and adjust to life in Canada), (English classes for example)

good point, but if you check 'who can get services' in the link, it clearly state 'you're currently outside Canada':
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/new-immigrants/new-life-canada/pre-arrival-services/eligibility.html


You can get free in-person and online services, if:

• we approved your permanent residence application
• you’re currently outside Canada
• you have one of these documents:
  • a letter from us saying you can get pre-arrival services
  • a confirmation of permanent residence letter
  • a passport request letter that indicates Permanent Resident visa issuance
  • a letter from us asking for your medical exam results
  • a single-entry permanent resident visa
  • a letter from us letting your know you can pick up your permanent resident visa

You can’t get pre-arrival services if you’re coming to Canada for a short time. That is, you’re a temporary resident visiting, studying or working in Canada on a visa or permit.

Copy of the letter

"Hello,
We are pleased to inform you that you, your spouse and dependants can now receive free pre-arrival services funded by the Government of Canada. These services are available before you arrive and are meant to better prepare you for life in Canada.
Pre-arrival services are provided on behalf of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) by settlement service provider organizations. These service providers offer free information to help you with:
• Living and working in Canada; • Getting your education, work experience, and professional licenses and certificates recognized in Canada; • Connecting with employers, and with free supports when you arrive in Canada, including language training; and • Connecting with others in your new community, including French-speaking communities.
If you are outside Canada, we strongly recommend that you use pre-arrival services before you leave. We encourage you to explore the list of services on the IRCC website: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/new-immigrants/ new-life-canada/pre-arrival-services.html
When you register for pre-arrival services with one of the service providers listed on the website, you will be asked to provide a copy of this letter. You can contact as many service providers as you like and receive as many services as you need, and these services are always at no cost to you.
You are also encouraged to take advantage of free Government of Canada resources available online, such as Welcome to Canada, the official handbook to help permanent residents prepare to come and settle in Canada. The handbook is available at https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/migration/ircc/english/pdf/pub/welcome.pdf.
Canada is a bilingual country where both English and French are spoken. If you are interested in living in a French-speaking community outside Quebec, please visit http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/francophone.asp. For up-to-date information on immigration, settlement services and citizenship, we invite you to join us on Facebook (Facebook.com/CitCanada) and follow us on Twitter (Twitter.com/CitImmCanada).
Sincerely,
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada"
