Ontario immigration opened applications for the Employer Job Offer: Foreign Worker Stream on Tuesday July 21, before closing the stream again a few hours later.
The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program stream is aimed at candidates with a job offer under National Occupational Classification 0, A or B, with two twos of work experience in the last five.
An Ontario immigration statement warned that when the intake limit had been met, the online filing system would automatically stop accepting applications.
Due to the current situation concerning the coronavirus pandemic, Ontario is requiring each application to be submitted with the most recent version of the Employer Form completed and dated July 21. This is to ensure all the information contained on the form is current.
“Carefully have your employer review the information listed in the Employer Form to respond accurately in order to avoid unnecessary delays in the processing of your application,” an Ontario statement said.
