What this round selects

Provincial nominee programs run separately from the federal system: each province opens its own streams, sets its own criteria and publishes its own scores, which is why a provincial score cannot be read against a CRS cut-off. Ontario (OINP) ran this draw in its Employer Job Offer: In-Demand Skills stream stream. A provincial nomination is not permanent residence in itself — it is the step that lets someone apply for it, and in the streams aligned with Express Entry it also adds 600 points to the CRS.

What it means for your profile

A score of 34 or above in the Ontario (OINP) stream on April 23, 2026 was enough to be invited in this draw. Below that, the registration stays in the province’s system for as long as that province keeps it and is considered again next time. This page does not forecast where the next cut-off will land. Each round depends on how many profiles are in the pool at the time and on the instructions in force that day, so a past cut-off is a record, not a target.
