The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) has been granted its 2026 nomination allocation by Canada's federal government, totalling 14,119 nominations. This represents a marked increase from the province's 2025 cap. Last year, the province issued a total of 10,750 nominations. The expanded allocation demonstrates the federal government's recognition of Ontario's role in supporting Canada's immigration objectives and economic growth. The additional nominations will enable Ontario to welcome more skilled workers and their families, addressing labour market needs throughout various sectors throughout the province.
