ONTARIO PNP: [REDI] PILOT PROGRAM LAUNCHED

The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) has launched the Regional Economic Development through Immigration (REDI) pilot, a one-year initiative that will run from January 2, 2025 to December 31, 2025.

The pilot sets aside 200 nominations from the OINP’s Employer Job Offer streams for each partner community, addressing specific regional immigration needs

This new initiative will use the OINP to target skilled labour that is not available locally to help fill labour market needs of employers in four pilot communities:

• Lanark County
• Leeds and Grenville
• Sarnia-Lambton
• City of Thunder Bay

The REDI pilot offers a pathway to permanent residence for skilled foreign workers with a job offer who want to live and work in a pilot community.
