How much is the OINP allocation for 2023?

Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has increased the OINP allocation for 2023 to 16,500 as compared to only 9,750 in 2022 and 9,000 in 2021.

Officially confirmed by the OINP on March 18, 2023, this quota is expected to double by the year 2025 to more than 18,000.

When will be the next OINP Draw of 2023?

OINP may conduct rounds of invitations directly targeting Express Entry profiles after one of the IRCC draws is announced because it has been seen that they base the higher range of cutoff scores near the CRS cutoff in the latest Express Entry draw.

However, OINP Expression of Interest (EOI) draws are unpredictable since the program conducts draws based on the number of allocations and available profiles in the system.
