Ontario issues ITAs to provincial immigration applicants. After a pause spanning four months, Ontario’s Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) has begun issuing invitations to applicants once again.
On June 6, the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) held a targeted draw for applicants in Greater Sudbury.
During this draw, invitations were issued to applicants who qualify for different OINP Employer Job Offer streams.
The breakdown across the streams can be seen below:
| Employer Job Offer Stream | Number of invitations issued | Minimum score |
| Foreign Worker Stream | 32 | 36 |
| International Student Stream | 34 | 54 |
| In-Demand Skills Stream | 6 | 32 |
Applicants needed to have an active profile created on or before June 3, 2025.
In total, 72 applicants were invited to the June 6 draw.
In total, applicants must have had a job offer from an employer in the Greater Sudbury census division. They must also have been living in Canada and have a bachelor’s degree or higher.
Those who have obtained invitations must submit their applications by June 20, 2025.
Details on the application process can be found on the OINP website.
News of these draws comes just days after OINP resumed its PNP draws on June 3 after a four-month hiatus.
On June 3, over 3,719 invitations were issued under the OINP Employer Job Offer streams.
Before these, the OINP had only held a single draw in 2025.
This draw took place on January 15 under the Employer Job Offer: Foreign Worker stream and invited only four applicants under a targeted draw for foreign nationals who were part of the Economic Mobility Pathways Pilot.
OINP recently confirmed cuts to its 2025 provincial nomination allocation, lowering the total number of nomination slots to 10,750.
New EOI System
Ontario issues ITAs to provincial immigration applicants. The OINP will launch a new Employer of Interest (EOI) system on July 2.
The new system will mark a shift from an applicant-led process to an employer-led process for the OINP’s Employer Job Offer streams.
That means that employers will now have to initiate the application process by submitting employment position details directly through an Employer Portal before an applicant can register for an EOI.
It also marks the shift from a paper-based system to a digital platform.
Applicants who have already submitted EOIs will have to work with their employers to re-initiate existing EOIs once the portal launches on July 2.
The new EOI system applies to the following Employer Job Offer streams:
- Foreign Worker Stream
- In-Demand Skills Stream
- International Student Stream
