I have better added scan of that certificate for my application. It does not hurt (in my LOE) and that way I am sure they will not ask for it.

Redlar, that looks like you will get nomination soon.

Hi everybody,
After i sent an email and called ontario immigration service, i have the following mail:

Veuillez noter que le dossier référencé ci-dessous, est à la seconde étape du processus de traitement, en attente d’être examiné par un Enquêteur/Analyste.

Un officier vous contactera si nous avions besoin de plus d’information


What does it mean? What is the first step? How many steps are left?
Hello Redlar,

You should not be far from a nomination :). In fact, they have started processing your application, which is now at the second stage and awaiting for an analyst to check it out for "accuracy". This is probably the last step. They might contact you if additional information is deemed necessary or you will just received the golden email: nomination :D

Wish you the very best!

I think it is worthwhile to attach it to your eAPR, unnecessary delays can be avoided simply that way; and it does not hurt as Vensak mentioned.

Sure Vensak, I shall do so. Am planning to attach ECA, languages tests results (even though they didnt request them). At least, they would have got all my docs handy, to expedite my application (hopefully !)


Question to everyone on the forum -especially those who have received a paper version of their nomination certificate. Was that the only (one page) document you have received from the authorities ? Is there else something else to expect from OINP ?

You will only get that 1 page from OINP.
You shall also await, that federal does contact the province that has nominated you (it can be for more data or for just confirmation of the process).

Here are conditions for French stream:
1. French set as first language (this is important, otherwise they will not see you) with CBL 7 + in all skills (which is also required minimum for your first language)
2. English as second language with CBL 6+ in all skills. Again, this is must.
3. University degree 3+ years
4. 1 year work experience in last 5 years (for outland it means from 1 employer).
5. Intention to live Ontario (where you are choosing provinces either choose option ALL or choose option Ontario. Below you will then see data collection statement, which you need to tag as accepted)

If you have all above Ontario will send you PT within a week. (so far everybody like that got PT). There is small chance of a glitch on your account. so if you do not receive PT but you meet all conditions, recreate your EE.
Needless to say that your EE needs to be active and linked with jobbank.
Hope this helps
Thank you for your informative reply
I would like to ask if u have all the conditions available to you get a nomination or do they send nominations at specific times?
Do all get a nomination or this stream is restricted only to a specific number of invitations?

If you meet the conditions you will receive Notification of interest. That gives you right to send your application to Ontario If your file is OK and you pass their assessment process, then Ontario will send you Nomination.
French stream experience is that everybody who has fullfilled requirements did get NOI. There is no specific time or date when they will send out NOI (Work days Office hours)
Yes, they have quotas for each stream including French one. We do not know exact quota for it, but they claim, that they want to have 5% of all PNP to be French speakers. (so there could be estimation of around 250 to 275 French stream applicants per year).
We are very small stream compared to others and there are much less applicants that meet the criteria. That is the reason, why this stream is still opened (unlike Human priorities).

What do you mean by the application is OK?
And should i get clb 7 in each section or clb 7 as a total band?

1. you must have CBL 7 or higher from French for each skill (not just overall). This is also minimum requirement to put it as your first language in EE.

2. Same thing for English - you must have CBL 6 for each skill.

3. The amount of 250 to 275 applications under as French speakers is an estimation. It comes from simply calculating 5% from all PNP nomination, that Ontario can issue per year (in 2016 it was 5500 PNP certificates, and 5% is 275). This can look as very small number, but also the number of people that can meet all conditions is rather small.

4. If your application is OK - it means that they assess it and they will be satisfied that it meets all criteria (with check, calls or additional documents). They will then issue you nomination.

This is up to you. You can study alone using all kind of learning material that you can find online or you can assign to the French language class. Depends what you prefer.
CBL 7 in French is between B2 and C1. At that level you can watch movies in French or use it in your work to communicate.
