What is the Express Entry Skilled Trades stream of Ontario?
The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) has an immigration path called the Express Entry Skilled Trades stream. It enables foreign citizens with relevant skilled trades work experience in Ontario to apply to live and work permanently in Ontario.
Before you can submit an application to be recommended for permanent residence by the Ontario government, you must have a valid profile in the IRCC’s Express Entry system and have obtained a Notification of Interest from Ontario. The next step after being nominated is to submit an application to the federal government via IRCC.
