About the French-Speaking Skilled Worker stream

As you might be aware, Canada is making a major push to increase the presence of francophone immigrants outside the province of Quebec. OINP’s French-Speaking Skilled Worker Stream is linked to Express Entry.

Through this stream under OINP, skilled foreign workers who are proficient in the French and English languages can apply to live and work in Ontario on a permanent basis.

It’s required that you have a valid profile submitted in the Express Entry system. You will then get an NOI (invitation) from Ontario. Only then you can apply for a provincial nomination by the Government of Ontario for permanent residency.

After you are nominated, you can apply to the federal government of Canada via IRCC. It’s the IRCC that finally decides you are fit to become a Canada PR visa holder.
