In line with recent updates to federal policy, the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) is now accepting the Pearson Test of English (PTE) Core, provided by Pearson Canada, Inc., as proof of English proficiency. This applies to all OINP streams requiring English language proficiency and OINP Expression of Interest (EOI) points claims. The PTE is now one more test applicants can submit to demonstrate their language skills. This change was implemented on January 30, 2024, and affects individuals who received an ITA or Notification of Interest from the OINP after that date.
