If I get PR via OINP which I have already applied for. Is it mandatory to live in Ontario, What I found so far is:

Every citizen of Canada and every person who has the status of a permanent resident of Canada has the right

(a) to move to and take up residence in any province; and

(b) to pursue the gaining of a livelihood in any province.

Although it is unethical, you are correct. But you'll need to land with intention of living in Ontario. Also I don't know if it may jeopardize you PR.

To all the experts, good day.

I just recently submitted my PR application under OINP. I just recently found out that I missed on 6d question answering NO when it should’ve been YES. I have a representative who alao did not notice the mistake when they were handling my case since I came to Canada. I called CIC and the officer said to send a letter of explanation. I do not have any file number as of yet since they just received my application and I think ot was not yet opened. It was an honest mistake. I declared refusal of an open work permit based on a study permit of my spouse in 2014. I declared that when i applied for a work permit. Im worried that my PR application might be denied because of this error. My rep dant want me to send the letter of application since it will have an inpact in his license. Please help me what to do!
