The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) Employer Job Offer: In-Demand Skills stream provides an opportunity for foreign workers with job offers in select in-demand occupations such as agriculture, construction, and personal support work to apply for permanent residence in Ontario. Employers must register their business and submit a job offer through the Employer Portal, after which applicants register an expression of interest. Successful nominees can then apply to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) for permanent residence.
