A province in Canada, Ontario has opened the application process for its new Workforce Priority Stream, giving eligible foreign workers a new pathway to permanent residence through the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program.
The province announced that, effective August 4, 2026, eligible foreign nationals can now register an Expression of Interest through Ontario’s e-Filing Portal, linked to a qualifying job offer from an eligible Ontario employer.
In a post obtained from Canada Visa’s X handle on Wednesday, according to the OINP, the new stream features three pathways: one for higher-skilled workers, one for lower-skilled workers, and another for self-employed physicians who are registered to practise in Ontario and are eligible to bill the province’s public health insurance plan, OHIP.
The province said that eligible foreign nationals must create an EOI linked to a qualifying job offer created by an eligible employer in the OINP Employer Portal to be considered for nomination.
