hi everyone my name is Marilene Quintana i'm a regulated canadian immigration
consultant and director of operations at evs immigration and in today's video we
are going to talk about the ontario immigration
nominee program
as usual before we start i would like to ask you to
please give us a thumbs up subscribe to our channel
and click on the little bell right below so you can receive weekly notifications
of our new videos so first what's the
entire immigration nominee program the entire immigration nominee program
is the economic immigration programs available for the province of ontario
usually the provinces take in consideration their specific needs
and create programs that will address their labor needs
and the type of skills that they wanted to attract
to their province there are eight different streams to
immigrate to the entire immigration nominee program
five of them would require the support of an employer
and then three of them do not require any support from any employer in terms
of general requirements i will start talking about the ones that require
a job offer so the most commons are the foreign workers stream the international
graduate stream the skilled trades and the in-demand
skills occupation the foreign workers stream in the
international graduate stream requires the applicant to have a support
of an employer located in ontario in a job offer
classified as a skilled worker position meaning
a job offered as classified as a skill level type
0arb the in demand occupation for example
contain a list of occupations that are not considered skilled worker
and there is two different lists to consider the list
that covers all the province and one list that's
specific for those applying outside the greater toronto area
the main advantage of the entire program is that the problem does not require any
level of english for the employer driven
occupations and does not have any age limit meaning if you are
20 years old or if you are 50 years old as long as you have the support of an
employer you can apply and you can immigrate to canada
regarding the employer requirements the employer is required to be established
for at least three years if the employer it is
located inside the greater toronto area meaning
the metropolitan region of toronto and cities nearby the
employer is required to have at least five employees who are
canadians or permanent residents of canada
and a gross revenue of 1 million per year
if the employer is located outside the greater toronto area
this requirement drops to 3 employees and a minimum revenue of half a million
five hundred thousand canadian dollars in the past fiscal year
for the in-demand occupation streams the positions are not
a skilled worker they are mostly entry level and we have at least such as
nurse aids harvest laborers homestallers so at least to offer
patients that despite the fact that not considered
skilled worker they are in demand in the province if the
employer is outside the greater toronto area there is
also all the occupations that can be considered mostly industry related
now let's talk about the immigration pathways that does not require
a job offer so in ontario we have the human capital priority
and the french-skilled worker stream in the human capital priorities you are
required to have at least one year of experience in the past five
years have minimum of cob7 in english or
french have at least a degree such as a
bachelor degree or a master's degree and you must be in the express entry
system with over 400 points and a point in the
province of ontario as your intended destination the
targeted occupations in this stream includes financial administrative
and commercial occupations and also other positions in tech and you can be
selected either in canada or overseas for the french-skilled
worker program and besides the requirements of the
human capital priority stream you also must have french
minimum of cob7 and english minimum of cop level 6. this
stream does not necessarily require that you have over 400 points
ontario also has a program available for entrepreneurs who want to invest
and open their own business in ontario how is the process of applying
for the most popular streams that require the job
offer the program usually open registration windows
once or twice a year because of the high demand it is very important for you to
have everything ready so once the program
opens you are ready to register and apply if this immigration has
established a functional structure to increase the chances of registering all
our clients and for you just to have an idea in the
past registration window it was only open for 20 minutes and we
at visa were able to register all of our clients
once you submit the application for the entire immigration nominee program
the average processing time is of three months
and upon nomination we will have to send the second part of the application to
the federal government of canada meaning that's the federal government of
canada that's going to make the final decision
on your file all the employer-driven streams they are paper based
meaning you have to submit the application to the federal government of
canada on paper and this processing time is an
average of 18 months for the express entry streams
that does not require job offer the federal processing takes an average
of six months are you ready to make canada
