Ontario released a COVID-19 emergency processing measures
On May 11, 2020, the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) published temporary special measures regarding processing the OINP applications in different streams. For instance, in the employer job offer streams, an applicant must have a job offer for an employment position that has been approved by the OINP to be nominated. If the position has been terminated as a result of the COVID-19, the application cannot be approved. OINP may contact employers to confirm that employment positions still meet program criteria. If the employee was temporarily laid-off and the employer confirms the continuation of employment after the emergency is cancelled, the application will be on hold for 90 days and continued after that. As for OINP entrepreneur stream applications, Ontario will extend the 90-day submission deadline for them.
