Tech Draw: Notifications of interest issued for Ontario’s Express Entry Human Capital Priorities (HCP) stream
On July 29, 2020, the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) issued targeted Notifications of Interest (NOIs) to candidates who may qualify for Ontario’s Express Entry Human Capital Priorities (HCP) Stream and have specific work experience.
You may apply to the HCP Stream if you (i) received a NOI on July 29, 2020; and (ii) can demonstrate that your work experience was in one of the eligible NOC codes listed below. If you received a NOI, you do not need to contact the program.
The OINP targeted candidates with a CRS between 463 and 477, and work experience in the following NOC codes:
0213 Computer and information systems managers
2147 Computer engineers
2172 Database analysts and data administrators
2173 Software engineers and designers
2174 Computer programmer and interactive media developers
2175 Web designers and developers
To be eligible for nomination, applicants must demonstrate work experience in one of the eligible NOC codes. Your application may be refused if you do not demonstrate work experience in one of the eligible NOC codes.
Through this dedicated approach, we’re helping to make it easier for businesses in the technology sector to recruit top talent from around the world.
To ensure that this initiative meets the needs of Ontario employers, we engaged with stakeholders across the province through a survey and face-to-face consultations. This helped us choose priority occupations for the targeted technology occupations draws.
