I received an invitation to apply for OINP on the 2nd of February and a few days later I accepted the invitation but I have yet to upload all the document requirements. In the meantime, my profile expired on the 27th of February and I created another one the very next day. Today, I received the OINP invitation again on my new profile.

My question is, can I withdraw my incomplete OINP application against the OINP invitation that I received last month and recreate another OINP profile and accept the OINP invitation that I received today.
How do you accept the invitation? I thought it was mainly filing the e-application

Are you even aware of what is happening with Express Entry with regards to FSW and outland candidates?
Can you please throw some light on this? What is happening with the Express Entry draws for FSW? When is it expected to happen next and what are the expected cut-offs going to be, going by the recent draws, PNP invitation cutoffs, etc.?

Hi All ,

I had a couple of questions with regard to the NOI I received on March 2 2021

1 ) What should I be selecting my Education as under the education section ? I have completed my MBA (Post graduate Diploma 1 year as per WES) & BCOM (bachelor’s degree as per WES )

2 ) I have the reference letter for my previous job which ( NOC 1112) as per the IRCC format but for my current job I do not have a reference letter.
For my current job (NOC 0111) I have a interview scheduled mail with JD attached, Offer letter, employment letter only stating my date of joining and designation and pay stubs. What should I do ?

Also I have received the NOI coz of the NOC code 112

Thanks in advance

For OINP application, all 10 years of your work experience is required. This is mandatory.
Hello thanx for the info. In my case i have a Work Experience where it will be difficult for me to get a reference letter. I was planning to include this experience in my personal history in EE FSW application. However in OINP the rules seems different. At this stage should i give up OINP or is there any way?

I have a different issue here. I got NOI for NOC 0124 but I am currently working with this NOC for the past 1 and a half year. Before that, two of my previous experiences were under NOC 5121. Will it be a problem?

And one more thing, can I just copy-paste my job roles and responsibilities from my Reference Letters to my Resume?

Hi all, I have received NOI from Ontario on March 2, 2021. My current CRS score is 463. WES didn't count my MBA as Masters. So I lost 7 points there. But I have applied for IQAS (which is still in the stage of waiting for transcripts even though my documents have reached there on December 21). I didn't include my spouse as accompanying in my EE profile. But, we processed my husband's ECA and we got his WES evaluation. Now he is planning to write IELTS next week. But I didn't include his details in my EE profile yet. In between, I got this NOI from Ontario. I have the following doubt. Am sorry if this is repetitive.
1. I can include my spouse as accompanying in my OINP application. But I won't include him in the EE profile. I hope that I will get my IQAS evaluation before June, which will increase my score from 463 to 470. At that point in time, I will add my spouse's details in my EE profile as accompanying and I am sure that our score will fall in the range of 463-467 (the cut-off range for which I got NOI). This is because I need to ensure that our score falls in the cut-off range. Is this fine?? Will it create any impact on my EE profile (even though I add my spouse before getting the nomination)?
2. I write IELTS again and try to achieve CLB10 which will increase my points from 463 to 469 and then I will add my spouse's details which will make our score falls in the range between 463-467. Also, then I will update the EE profile that the spouse is accompanying with me. Then I will submit the OINP application.

Which one is better?

Please advise. I am really confused.

Submit notarized reference letter from your senior colleague or manager.

1. Fill as per your ECA report.
2. Attach your available documents and explain this scenario in LOE.

Kindly explain. Did you mean to get a notarized reference letter from senior colleague/ manager from my previous work where i am unable to get a reference letter from HR? Although i have the employment contract and past records of Bank Statement (Bank Account closed after i left job). Will this help?

That's a right understanding, submit notarized reference letter from senior colleague/manager where you're unable to get a reference letter from HR.

I understand so far. Some of my senior colleagues are not working in that organization any more. They have moved to different companies. Will their reference letter work? Although the reference letters will be in white pages (not letterheads as they belong to a different organization now).

Dear Guys,

I had received NOI from OINP on 2nd March 2021 and had applied for it. Can we all start a thread mentioning timeline of our application which can guide us all for nomination status?

My application timeline is appended below for forum's use and I'll keep it updated going forward for any change.

CRS 464
OINP NOI received => 2nd March 2021
Submitted Stage => 28th March 2021 (application submitted date)
Assessment Stage => 6th May 2021
Decision in Progress Stage => 10th May 2021
Next Update Awaited

Request if everyone can share their status and keep the forum updated. This can help us to keep our anxiety levels moderate during our OINP and IRCC application process.
