@phs928 I got the invitation too.
I'm CRS 549 and in July I can be CEC so I'll be 575+ in score.
All my documents are already prepared. I have been advised to wait for July 6th, if no all-program draw, better go with the PNP.

But looking at your score, I may think that you should go for the PNP now.

In previous memo, IRCC said they would be back with generic draw of a size similar to pre-covid, so around 3000 per draw.
There is currently 8000 people in the EE pool with score between 500 and 600.
So, even if they start to draw on July 6th, you would probably have to wait at least for the 3rd draw to happen. But this is not hard proof yet that it will happens on July 6th.

If I were you, I would take the PNP.
Thanks for your reply!

Wow, your score is really high.
If I take the PNP I might need to wait for another 2 - 3 months to get the nomination which will delay the process of getting PR, whereas if I wait for an invitation I might be able to get it after the 3rd or 4th draws - so late August.
So I decided to apply for the PNP after tomorrow, the 6th of July, after seeing how high the points are.

Hi everyone,

I have a Intra company transfer job offer from my employer in Canada. My work permit application is in progress. My questions-

1. Can I use this job offer to apply under thejob offer stream in OINP to secure a PR? Or is it rule that a job offer can either be used for WP or for PNP, but not both?

2.Can I use this job offer to gain 50 points in express entry for a PR? Or is it rule that a job offer can either be used for WP or for EE, but not both?

1. Which OINP program are you considering?
2. Only after you have worked for your employer for a full year in Canada. So not at this time.

I would be looking for OINP - Employer job offer -Foreign worker stream.

P. S - I am outside Canada. I have also received EOI from SINP but not sure on applying for it since we do not want to live there.

what is the best and fastest possible way for me to secure a PR i Ontario.

There is no fast way. To claim 50 points, you need to have one year of Canadian work experience. What is your CRS score? How are you eligible for OINP Foreign Worker Stream if you are LMIA exempt? The purpose of the program is for employers to show they tried to hire in Ontario but were unsuccessful.


Employers must demonstrate that reasonable efforts were made to recruit a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident prior to offering the position to the applicant, unless:

  • the applicant already has a valid work permit to work in Ontario, or
  • the employer has a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) for the position
The OINP is designed to assist employers in circumstances where their efforts to fill a position domestically were unsuccessful due to skills shortages. Employers are expected to conduct domestic recruitment efforts on their own, or with the assistance of recruitment agencies/specialists (for example, head hunters, human resource consulting firms) who have expertise in recruiting domestic talent

It doesn't make sense to accept the EOI for SINP if you are taking a job in Ontario. SINP requires you to show that you plan to settle in that province. If you are working in Ontario, then the SINP application will be refused.

If you want someone to assess the best and fastest way for you to secure PR in Ontario, then I would recommend you hire an immigration lawyer to help you determine the various immigration programs available to you. It's really not possible for any of us to do this assessment for you. Your options are to either research this yourself or hire someone to help you. Good luck.
