Hey everyone, I have a question. I am hoping to apply for Ontario's PNP program when it opens. I graduated few months ago and still looking for a full time job. I wanted to know about OINP's requirement as this one mentioned for those applying under the Masters category, such as:

"...demonstrate at least 12 cumulative months of residence in Ontario in the 24 months prior to the submission of the application, and"...

What does cumulative mean in this context? Does it mean consecutive 12 months with no travelling outside Ontario or the total months should be at least 12 from the 24 months with breaks permissible? I don't know if my question makes sense.
 
I am guessing cumulative means accumulated or collected, not consecutive. However, I would really appreciate if any of you could confirm. Thanks a lot.

Best,
Bend.

the 12 months should be without any breaks. I know 1 case that they refused the application bc he took a summer break during the master study in ontario...Sounds stupid but yeah, that how OINP works :P

Hi,

It's all up to you and job market. As per OINP, you must need bachelor degree. if you're here after 12th std, it's better to move to another province.

Hey thank you so much! I do not think they require it to be a consecutive. Your friend's case was different, I guess because he took a break during his masters. I didn't do that. We only had an official winter gap when I travelled. This issue is still unclear. Thank you so much once again for your reply.
 
Hi I am working for CIBC for 11 months now , studied for only one year . I worked in C and D category jobs during study permit and till I got my Work permit .

Should I include it in the Work experience or just remove it as it doesn't add any points , only worry is what if they ask later why I did not mention it .
what say ??

Definitely, It will counted but for your Master Degree, you have to Evaluate to WES. As long as you just recently graduated, you have three years work permit. you can search field job in your study. Gain 1 year experience in Noc O,A,B category. Hope You will be get more that 400+ point after 1 year Canadian experience Then you will be eligible for OINP.

Thanks,
Krunal
 
I want to apply for OINP masters stream, I just want to know whether previous work related offer letter and experience letter back home enough to prove work experience for OINP and also to apply for express entry???
 
not sure if work experience is even a requirement for masters stream unless you are applying for express entry
