Ontario has invited 954 express entry candidates with eligible work experience in a tech draw held on January 15th for a provincial nomination for Canada permanent residence. Candidates who received Notification of Interest (NOI) in the draw had the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score between 460 and 472 points.
Targeted occupations in the draw were as follows:
For any immigrant to be considered for OINP (Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program)’s Tech draw, they are required to create an express profile in the express entry program by applying for Canada PR visa through three major skilled economic immigration programs – Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) and Canadian Experience Class (CEC).
To get a provincial nomination certificate, the express entry candidate gets 600 CRS points awarded. These many points guarantee that the candidate gets an ITA (Invitation to Apply) to apply for Canada PR Visa to the Immigration, Refugees & Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Tech draws were introduced in the summer of 2019 to help the province to meet the rising demands of the local labour market’s tech sector. Some of the major tech-hubs in the province are Toronto, Ottawa and Waterloo.
Ontario held their Tech draw through OINP’s Human Capital Priorities stream that allows them to search for the skilled immigrants with required work experience in the federal government’s express draw. Having a job offer is not required to be eligible for OINP’s Human Capital Priorities stream.
The main aim of these tech draws is to search for express entry candidates who are able to meet the minimum requirements of Human Capital Priorities Stream and have a minimum of continuous one year of work experience.

Ever since I have spoken to Team Nationwide, I have received all kinds of support I have looked for, starting from transcripts to IELTS coaching, they have helped me with everything. I already have referred three of my friends to them because of the fabulous service delivered by them and shall be doing it in the future too.
Quality work and friendliness is why I decided to opt for Nationwide Visas for preparing my application for Permanent Residence in Canada. Today, my parents are proud of me for making the right choice, it has all become possible because of Nationwide.
Nothing influences me more than a recommendation from a trusted friend, I got reference for Nationwide Visas through one of my friends, who got his ITA with the help of Team Nationwide. They explained the documentation process in detail and made the correct recommendations that I cherish now.
Before initiating the immigration process, I was a bit skeptical, however, after having a word with their consultant who explained the whole process to me over the phone without trying to sell their service, I felt assured. I did not give it a second thought and initiated my immigration process. All the case managers at Nationwide Visas are well-versed with the process and never fall short of expectations whenever I walk up to them with any queries.
For the past 4 months, I had been struggling with understanding the immigration process and was looking for a consultant who could not only explain the process, but also guide me regarding what all options were available to me. So, after reading their reviews, I approached Nationwide Visas, and true to their reviews, they explained the whole process to me while also giving me clear information about the chances I had at securing Canada PR Visa.
