Ontario has revised the minimum Comprehensive Ranking Score (CRS) for its Human Capital Priority Stream which is linked with Express Entry immigration stream. The minimum score will be now ‘determined by the director’, whereas previously candidates required minimum 400 scores to qualify for the nomination.

In the last three draws, OINP waived the CRS minimum score to 400. From which two were targeted Express Entry candidates with a job offer and another with French language abilities with CLB 7 or higher. The CRS minimum score was dropped as low as 350 in its 9^th August targeted job offer draw.

The HCP or Human Capital Priority stream is the most active and popular immigration pathway. Through Express Entry – HCP steam, Ontario has issued 3,534 Notification of Interest in 2018. Candidates who receive a provincial nomination from Ontario through Express Entry are awarded additional 600 points towards their CRS score.
