Ontario Express Entry - Received PT Notification of Interest from Ontario

[T365]

I know ! That's why I wanted to check if there was any other "aberration" in this forum !

What a lucky guy!

Mind sharing your details like NOC and work/ties/educ. in ON? There are some of us who resubmitted but haven't got a PT yet. The info you share will help us determine if there's some criteria we haven't met that hinders us from getting the PT.

Thanks!

NOC 1112, 3 years of experience, no ties at all to Ontario, master's degree from French business school.

You won't be creating another profile - that will be redundant as having more than 1 profile with the very same details makes no difference to your selection chances.

You'll be deactivating (withdrawing) your existing profile and creating a fresh profile so that you are eligible for OOPNP. Period.

This whole process wouldn't take more than a few hours from start to finish so you wouldn't miss out on any draws if you do this right away. Plus, the more you delay this the lesser your chances of getting an invitation (PT) from OOPNP because they have a finite number of nominations (2700) to give away through EE during the current year. The cycle of invitation to nomination is estimated to be anywhere between 2 - 4 months for 80% of the applicants and they have just started the program less than 2 weeks back.

Recommend you withdraw and recreate your profile with haste if you're keen on OOPNP.

All the best!

Dear Asivad Anac,
Do you mind telling me where you got this information?

Hello guys,

I recreated my profile on 9th and got PT on 10th June.

NOC-2133 ELECTRICAL ENGINEER

Score-405

Ties- Uncle PR in Ontario but it will be hard to prove tie with him without his birth certificate ;D

Guys, one question please if can shed some light on it.

Is professional registration is MANDATORY for applying under Ontario PNP?

Not at all.

After receiving a PT, applicants have up to 45 days (Pg 2 of App guide) to accept and send in their applications. After that, OOPNP will take up to 90 days (Pg 26 of App guide) to process 80% of applicants. Keeping both those numbers in mind coupled with the progress we are seeing with CIC issuing PPRs within 2 months (and having similar deadlines) is what prompted me to give that as a range. Plus they did start the program around 2 weeks back in full earnest.

Hope that clarifies.

So that 80% of applications will be processed on a first-come first-serve basis?

That isn't clear yet. Maybe they will because they wouldn't want to lose the good ones to other provinces or 'regular' ITAs. Maybe they won't because government officers work by the book. Only time (and messages on this forum confirming acknowledgment letters and nomination mails) will tell.

Hi ,

I am in Canada on a closed work permit ( intra company transfer ) which technically does not need LMIA . My CRS is 433. Been working in canada for about 20 months now .Got my ECA and also IELTS . Created my profile back in Feb and i am planning to create a new one so that i get a notification .
I understand , if i do get a notification on my CIC, i have 45 days to submit all the documents which also includes the financial requirements .
It is about 15000 CAD for my wife and myself and i wont be able to show them that sort of funds with a 6 months bank statement .

Technically these funds are proof to show that you can support yourself in Canada and we both have been getting our salaries regularly and we have been supporting ourself for the last 1.5 years. Does it make sense to show my bank statement stating that a salary has been credited twice a month or is it mandatory to show a balance of 15000 CAD ?
I have not been able to make a decision of withdrawing my existing profile and create a new one based on this dilemma .

Please clarify.

Thanks in advance

Unfair as it may sound, the only time you seem to be exempt from showing POF to CIC is if you're on an LMIA approved job.(http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp)

The same is true for OOPNP as well. The application guide seems to be clear on that from in Sec 3.4 - Settlement Funds (Pg 12).

Hi Thanks for the clarification .

I just got off the phone with an executive from Ontario Immigration . They said they have cases like this and they do have a fix for this . They have asked me to mail them the query and they would be able to respond in a written statement on what needs to be done so that i can attach that as en explanation once i get invited for the OOPNP .

Not mandatory to have it for 6 months. Just keep documentation ready just in case CIC raises a question about the sudden appearance of this money in your account. They're typically worried about loans taken and shown as POF.

All the best!
