• Date/Time of NOIs issued: July 25, 2023

• CRS score range: 321-374
• Profiles created in IRCC’s Express Entry system: July 25, 2022 - July 25, 2023

French-Speaking Skilled Worker Stream: Application Process

It is entirely feasible for an individual to complete the entire process of immigrating to Canada under the Ontario French-Speaking Skilled Worker Stream within a 12-month period, if not even more quickly than that. Here is a run-through of the process, from beginning to end:

• STEP 1: Meet the criteria of the FSWC or the CEC (note that candidates eligible under the Federal Skilled Trades Class only are not eligible under this stream).
• STEP 2: Create an Express Entry profile.
• STEP 3: Meet the criteria for the Ontario French-Speaking Skilled Worker Stream.
• STEP 4: Receive a NOI from the OINP (note that not all eligible candidates may be issued a NOI).
• STEP 5: Apply to the OINP for a provincial nomination certificate within 45 days of receiving the NOI.
• STEP 6: Receive a provincial nomination from the OINP.
• STEP 7: Receive 600 additional CRS points and an invitation to apply for Canada PR at a subsequent draw from the pool.
• STEP 8: Submit an application for permanent residence within 60 days of receiving the ITA.
• STEP 9: Become a permanent resident of Canada.

It's important to note that the OINP is highly competitive, and meeting the eligibility criteria does not guarantee you will receive a nomination. Therefore, ensuring that your application is as strong as possible is essential by providing all the required documentation and presenting your qualifications and experience in the best possible light.

Good Luck!
