Re: Opportunities Ontario - PNP International Masters PhD Graduate Stream

Opportunities Ontario iniially promised a very short application processing time.
Around 14 months and which led lots of masters graduate to apply in this category paying an extra $1500 plus IELTS and other associated fees as an extra.

Now the situation is that there are a number of such applicants left stranded specially after Buffalo visa offcie closed down. :'(
Files are transfered to Ottawa VO and apparently from the response from applicants on other threads and also responses from MPs is that this may take another one year for Ottawa to process applications.

Any updates guys on the time line ?

I sumbit my application for Ontario PNP at the end of May 2012 and got my certificate at the end of August. Then
CIO received my application at Sept. 05.
CC got charged at Oct.23
AOR email received at Oct.31

Hope fully your application will be processed much faster since your application must never been to Buffalo and tranferred back to Ottawa.
SO all your processing will be in Ottawa which isa good sign.
