Hello everyone,
Just wanted to have your insight as to current timeline for Ontario PNP. Created my EE profil March 7th and got Ontario PT on the same day.
Physical application arrived via Fedex on April 14th. No AOR since them.
My question : as we know that some streams are closed (too many applicants) and it generated backlog but Ontario is still issuing PT for the French Speaking Skilled Worker stream, what is the usual time it takes to get an AOR in that stream ?
Any insights appreciated.
All the best to you all

I'm interested to know if any applicants who applied under the Express Entry - French Speaking Skilled Worker Stream in November 2015 have got nominated? I'm asking this because people who applied under the "Human Capital Priorities Stream" in November 2015 are still awaiting nomination.

Hello :)

Same here. I sent my physical application yesterday. It will take few days to be delivered. But I would like to know the timeline and the process details. I mean after the AOR lets say hopefully I get the nomination and then the 600 points and then the ITA, do I have to submit again all the documents under EE or what?

HI all,

I am also in the same boat. My application reached Mississauga on the 5 July 2016. I am interested to see the trend after all the applications of the Human Capital stream are processed (AOR). I guess the last one should have reached OINP sometime beginning of May. Do yo think there will be an difference in processing time from application to AOR after that?

Can't answer you on behalf of the sloth speed from the CIC but one thing I for sure know is that when you speak the two official languages of the two official languages, you are getting way ahead of the rest of the applicants. You will for sure get what you want, just the matter of time. Good luck and be patient :)

I applied under the French Speaking Skilled Worker stream and my application was received on July 18th and I just received my AOR today on August 19th.
I'm a US citizen applying within the US.

I expected to get my AOR around the end of this year as the average wait time is 6 months for most. I think everything will go faster for everyone as Ontario is getting less and less applications to process.

I applied under the French Speaking worker stream in November and still waiting for the nomination. I don't think there is any difference between the human capital priorities stream and the french speaking skilled worker stream in terms of application handling speed

I don't know if there's a significant difference but I've noticed my case was handled by French speaking officers. My application was entirely in French so I doubt it was reviewed by English-only speaking officers.
I'll keep you updated if nominated.

My NOC is 3131.
It is a regulated profession but Ontario does not require licensure as you can't get licensed until you're permanent resident.
