Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) - Human Capital Category

Overview.

The human capital category has two sub-categories, the international graduate streams and Ontario’s Express Entry streams.

International Graduates streams operate under an expression of interest system. To qualify under the Masters Graduate or PhD Graduate streams, you must create a profile in the OINP e-Filing Portal then register an expression of interest for your graduate stream, have received an invitation to apply and apply within two years of getting your graduate degree from an eligible Ontario university.

Ontario's Express Entry streams operate through the federal government’s Express Entry System. To qualify under Ontario’s Express Entry streams, you must have received a notification of interest from Ontario and have an up-to-date profile with your most current work experience, language tests and education in the federal government’s Express Entry system.
