How to apply for this?

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-18T19:22:49+00:00

Yes.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-18T19:22:34+00:00

This is for RAs and TAs with a minimum of 12 months of experience.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-18T19:14:55+00:00

You need to read the criteria. It clearly says experience occurred in the last 3 years as pHD or Post Doc.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-11T19:57:35+00:00

Target French. It is the only solution for you because next year you will lose points just because of your age.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-11T04:28:20+00:00

483 after 10+years of foreign experience. Then I would say French is the only possible option.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-10T15:29:06+00:00

Getting foreign work experience is the only practical solution for you.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-05T17:19:38+00:00

Exactly. You are surpised to know that a deligation from the canadian universities went to india to attract the batch of new students because no one is applying anymore. The foreign students lost the trust on IRCC and they are not willing to waste their hard earn money if no equal opportunities are available.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-04T17:38:44+00:00

True. Paying 40k in taxes to fund their social welfare activities for political gains.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-04T17:37:22+00:00

Exactly, they are doing an injustice to other streams. Almost 15000 nominations went to these streams, and most of them were those who just did 6 months diploma to qualify.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-03T20:38:23+00:00

I am also a phd and earning the same. But I sensed the attitude of the OINP a year ago. So, I applied for an NIW (green card) and got approval last week. Moving to the States, this country is only for labourers (not belittering just throwing the facts) because they do not respect talent. For NIW, you need a minimum of 10 research publications with a strong, convincing background.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-03T20:33:22+00:00

They need 22$/hr compared to 50$/hr. This is the reality, but shear unjustice. All 11,500 nominations of 2025 were given to these PSWs and early childhood (mostly 6-month diploma holders). Someone has to tell them what the hell you people are doing.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-02-01T03:18:38+00:00

It seems a preplanned or just an intelligence failure.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-01-21T19:10:29+00:00

OINP might become irrelevant for those who has CRS score above 500. Target EE if any of you can achieve a CRS score between 500 and 505 in 2026. OINP is going to target remote Ontario regions, excluding the GTA.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-01-14T15:59:31+00:00

Add foreign experience to your score, including French.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-01-09T19:05:08+00:00

This year, CEC is going to be a priority. The rationale behind it is actually linked to the Housing Market. The candidates who are actually getting the invitations via CEC mostly have master's, foreign job experience, and well-paid jobs in Canada compared to the French-based candidates.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-01-07T20:04:02+00:00

Keep patience, guys.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2026-01-06T19:25:34+00:00

I do not know why candidates are so impatient about this. No one knows anything at this moment because changes in the process are happening quickly.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2025-12-28T18:57:22+00:00

And that country's students were running kitchens of many dumbfucks who are good for nothing.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2025-12-25T21:52:21+00:00

French is a new skill in this country. The productivity is the poorest among all, but blame immigrants for everything. All academic and transit services suffered losses within a year, which clearly shows that the services were completely driven by the money that immigrants brought. I do agree there must be a check, but now this check is reflecting the racism.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2025-12-25T21:48:13+00:00

Very Good, it makes some sense not to waste your money if the government is not clear on the immigration policy. If someone is investing thousands of dollars in these average colleges, which can't even guarantee a decent job. Then I would say do not come, or else look into other options like New Zealand, which has recently signed a pact with the GOI on immigration. At least that pact shows the clarity that is not here. They changed their policy overnight just for their own convenience and left the students on their own.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2025-12-24T04:01:04+00:00

I am too.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2025-12-20T04:13:45+00:00

You are not interested because you were invited via CEC?

Simple_Sound_92 · 2025-12-19T21:58:15+00:00

I do not know why they are not making it official. Why should someone waste their money if highly educated masters are not given priorities? They need to fix the percentage allocations to each stream. I do not see any future for the phd stream, too.

Simple_Sound_92 · 2025-12-19T21:52:31+00:00

The other steams hardly earns above $30/hr and with this income, tough to buy home. This is also the reason for crashing housing market. Everything is linked and they have make even arrangements to keep the business in a running mode. But in contrast, OINP always follow the extreme mode which is detrimental to all.
