Ontario is to start publishing the names of candidates, employers and representatives penalised for providing inaccurate, incorrect or misleading information to the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program<\/span><\/a> (ONIP).<\/p>\n

From May 3, the names of anyone in the above three groups will be published, where they have had an administrative monetary penalty or banning order imposed against them for contravening the Ontario Immigration Act, 2015, according to an OINP statement.<\/p>\n

The Act requires candidates, employers and representatives to provide accurate, correct and \u2018not misleading\u2019 information in immigration applications.<\/p>\n

\u201cPublishing contraventions of the Act is an important measure to protect the public and further strengthen the integrity of the program,\u201d the OINP statement said.<\/p>\n

Possible Penalties<\/h3>\n

Those found to have contravened the Act face penalties including denial of application, cancellation of approval, prosecution and administrative order.<\/p>\n

Administrative orders can include a ban on the candidate, employer or representative from participating in the OINP for up to five years.<\/p>\n

An administrative order can also include an Administrative Money Penalty (AMP). AMPs cannot exceed $150,000 for each contravention. They must be paid within 60 days of the order being served.<\/p>\n

AMPs are calculated using the following formula:<\/p>\n

($2,000 \u00d7 A \u00d7 B) + C<\/h3>\n

A = total number of administrative penalties imposed against the person or body in the previous 10 years (or the number 1 otherwise).<\/p>\n

B = number of candidates involved if the contravention involves applications of multiple candidates or bodies (or the number 1 otherwise).<\/p>\n

C = monetary amount the candidate or body has received at any time in connection with the contravention.<\/p>\n

Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP)<\/h3>\n

The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) supports employers by facilitating the immigration of managerial, professional and skilled foreign workers and international students required to meet their human resources needs.<\/p>\n

The province of Ontario operates the OINP in partnership with the federal immigration department, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Interested candidates must follow a two-stage process: apply for nomination to the provincial government, and then, if nominated, apply for permanent residence to the federal government.<\/p>\n

OINP Streams<\/h3>\n

The OINP manages three immigration categories: Human Capital, Employer Job Offer and Business Immigration. Each category is further divided into several streams.<\/p>\n

HUMAN CAPITAL CATEGORY<\/h3>\n

This category enables OINP to nominate candidates who have the skills, education and work experience to contribute to Ontario\u2019s economy and labour market. It is comprised of three Express Entry streams and two international student streams:<\/p>\n
