Will requirements for OINP Masters stream change when it reopens?

[lusafaty]

I can't wait for the pause to be lifted later this year. My concern tho is that the requirements for the Masters stream might change when it reopens. I've heard rumours that this stream is way too easy, and Ontario is considering whether changes should be made. For example, the requirements could change to allow only graduates in certain fields to apply (i.e., occupations in high demand) -- like what they did in BC.

What's your two cents on this?

I don't know if the requirements are gonna change but they have to do something about it. When it was open the processing took 6-7 months plus the paper based stream PR application taking at least 16 months.
With new express entry points for master's grads, OINP is about to lose some solid revenue ($1500 an applicant), unless they do something about this. So I wouldn't be surprised if there's somesort of change.
