Ontario drops CRS score requirement to select French speaking applicants

Sep 05, 2024: As shared earlier in Canada’s draw speculations, the country strongly advocates and selects French-speaking applicants. This is evident in the latest OINP Express Entry French-Speaking Skilled Worker Stream. As Ontario drops CRS score requirement to select French speaking applicants.

The details of the current OINP draw are:

  • Firstly, 86 applicants have NOIs to apply for a PNP nomination.
  • Secondly, we see Ontario drops the CRS score requirement to 290-393.
  • Also, applicants who NOIs created their EE profiles between September 5, 2023, – September 5, 2024.

 

If you have an NOI to apply for a PNP nomination, then this is because you:

  • Firstly, created an online profile in the Express Entry (EE) System.
  • Secondly, applied to 1 of the EE sub-streams such as:
    • Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)
    • Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)
    • Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
  • Also, meet Human Capital Factors:
    • Age
    • Education
    • Work Experience
    • Language Skills
  • Whereas for OINP Express Entry French Speaking Skilled Worker Stream:
    • Have a minimum of bachelor’s, master’s, or PhD degrees.
    • Have a minimum language skill level of NCLC 7:
      • TCF: R – 453-498, W: 10-11, L: 458-502, S: 10-11.
      • TEF: R – 434-461, W: 428-471, L: 434-461, S: 456-493.
    • Also, have enough funds to support yourself and your family members (if accompanying you).
    • Agree to live in Ontario post getting Canada PR.

 

When these 86 French speaking applicants get a PNP nomination, they will get an extra 600 CRS score. This raises their chances of getting an ITA for a Canada PR visa.

 

Ontario joins the bandwagon to select more French speaking applicants via OINP draws

Sep 05, 2024, OINP Express Entry French Speaking Skilled Worker Stream draw is the 3rd draw of its kind in 2024. And looking at the draw table we can get a clear idea of how the CRS cut-off fell in the current draw.

Looking at the above table we can see:

  • Firstly, in the current draw, we see a lower number of NOIs being issued. This is the lowest number to be issued in 3 draws.
  • Secondly, Ontario drops the CRS cut-off to 290-393. This is the lowest CRS cut-off range amongst all the three draws.

Even though the NOIs are lower, the CRS cut-off being the lowest raises the scope of a higher number of French-speaking applicants in upcoming draws.

So, why waste your French language skills when you can easily get a PNP nomination + Canada PR visa. In short, take our Free Assessment or Contact Us to connect with Canada immigration experts NOW!
