Ontario propone una revisión completa de las vías provinciales para obtener la residencia permanente
El gobierno provincial de Ontario ha propuesto un enfoque de dos fases para introducir cambios importantes en la selección de candidatos para la residencia permanente. En la primera fase, el Programa de Candidatos para Inmigrantes de Ontario (OINP) consolidaría sus tres líneas de «Empleador: Oferta de Empleo» en una sola. En la segunda fase, el OINP eliminaría todas las demás líneas existentes e introduciría tres nuevas categorias: Etapa 1: Nueva vía de Ofertas de Empleo La nueva vía propuesta para Ofertas de Empleo incluiría dos vías independientes: una para ocupaciones de nivel 0-3 de la Clasificación Nacional de Ocupaciones (NOC), Formación, Educación, Experiencia y Responsabilidad (TEER), y otra para ocupaciones de nivel 4-5 de la TEER. Vía TEER 0-3 La vía TEER 0-3 se dirigiría a trabajadores cualificados y priorizaría a candidatos que ya se encuentran en Canadá con cualificaciones avanzadas. Para optar a la oferta, los solicitantes deberán cumplir con criterios mínimos en tres áreas principales: salario, experiencia laboral y educación. Salario La oferta de empleo deberá alcanzar el salario medio para esa ocupación en Ontario. Los graduados recientes de instituciones elegibles de Ontario (de los últimos dos años) podrían optar a una oferta de empleo de nivel salarial bajo. Experiencia laboral Los solicitantes deberán cumplir uno de los siguientes criterios: Educación Los solicitantes también deberán poseer un título de educación superior, a menos que tengan 6 meses de experiencia laboral en Ontario en la ocupación que les ofrece el empleador. Via TEER 4-5 El programa TEER 4-5 apoyaría a empleadores que dependen de puestos que generalmente requieren un diploma secundário o capacitación en el trabajo, pero que enfrentan una escasez persistente de personal, como muchas ocupaciones de primera línea, servicios, manufactura y apoyo. Los elementos clave del programa propuesto incluyen: Elegibilidad en todas las NOC TEER 4 y 5: Sorteos específicos: Requisito mínimo de idioma: Requisito de experiencia laboral: La propuesta también señala dos flexibilidades importantes: Etapa 2: Tres nuevas categorias del OINP En la segunda etapa del rediseño, Ontario eliminaría todas sus demás categorias existentes y las reemplazaría con tres nuevas corrientes. 1. Línea de atención sanitaria prioritaria Esta línea crearía una vía específica para el personal sanitario, con especial atención a quienes ejercen profesiones sanitarias reguladas. Las principales características propuestas incluyen: No se requiere oferta de trabajo: Apoyo para recién graduados: 2. Entrepreneur stream Ontario would also introduce a redesigned entrepreneur stream as a pathway for newcomers who invest in the province, create jobs and support regional economic development. The proposed stream replaces the previously closed entrepreneur stream, and would target foreign nationals who either: 3. Canal de talento excepcional El canal de talento excepcional propuesto está diseñado para captar candidatos cuyas contribuciones se alejan de las vías tradicionales de empleo o de la búsqueda de empleo, pero que, sin embargo, son muy valiosas para Ontario. Se centraría en personas en áreas como la academia, la innovación, la ciencia, la tecnología y los sectores creativos que: Algunos ejemplos de logros que podrían calificar incluyen: Esta línea evaluaría a los candidatos mediante una evaluación cualitativa de las contribuciones de cada persona y su posible impacto en la vida económica, social y cultural de Ontario, en lugar de basarse únicamente en los criterios tradicionales de puntuación. Espero que este tema sea de utilidad para sus planes migratorios. Gracias por leernos. ¡Nos vemos pronto! Mucho gustos ! Oscar Link Oficial: https://www.ontario.ca/page/government-ontario

There are many differences between Canada and most Latin American countries at every stage of the job search, and we hope this guide helps you land your dream job. Resume or Curriculum Vitae (CV): Your resume is your first opportunity and the first filter in the selection process. A well-structured CV, with relevant information that clearly reflects your skills and competencies, will significantly increase your chances of being considered for the position. Remember that your CV style should be formatted for the Canadian market. Cover Letter: The purpose of your cover letter is to introduce yourself and your CV. It should complement, not duplicate, the information in your CV, adding a personal touch and highlighting your interest in the job. Other documents to consider obtaining, as they may be required by certain employers: Many Canadian companies prefer to hire local staff. However, many companies are open to hiring abroad, as evidenced by the numerous international recruitment trips. How to find a job in Canada?

How to get PR in Canada?
Immigration to Canada reached a historic milestone in July 2023 with the new opportunities offered by the Express Entry program, providing incredible benefits to highly qualified professionals in technical fields and at the university level. Examples include general engineering, carpentry, IT & AI, software programming, and technicians in all areas. The opportunity to immigrate to Canada is now, and you should start by creating an Express Entry Profile. What are the Express Entry Profile entry options? There are three: Federal Skilled Workers, Federal Skilled Trades, and the Canadian Experience Class. The latter is clearly not for you if you are not in Canada, as you lack any Canadian experience. Canada offers more than 50 immigration programs to foreign nationals, but most of them depend on a job offer. One way to avoid the job offer requirement for residency in Canada is to arrive as a student, working from there towards permanent residency and eventually Canadian citizenship. Programs to obtain a Canadian permanent resident visa: Express Entry: This system combines three immigration programs: Provincial Candidate Program (PNP): Provinces select candidates with skills, careers, and trades based on the needs and demand in their labor market. Essentially, these are programs for living within the country. While Express Entry programs are open to jobs throughout Canada, which might seem like an advantage over other programs, the Provincial Candidate Program allows for more targeted selection based on the specific needs of each province. Family Sponsorship: This program aims to reunite families in Canada. If you live in Canada, your spouse or common-law partner, grandparents, and dependent children can immigrate through sponsorship. This is another way to obtain a Canadian permanent resident visa. What about siblings, nephews, and grandchildren? They can only be sponsored under special conditions: if they are orphans and minors. Tips for Obtaining a Canadian Permanent Resident Card: Obtaining permanent residency in Canada can be a tedious process. Here are our best tips to help you navigate this process smoothly: Obtaining permanent residency in Canada is the dream of many foreigners living legally in Canada. For information on how to apply for your Permanent Resident Card, we invite you to schedule a personalized appointment.
