I have received an invitation to apply for the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP), but my work permit is due to expire on March 10, 2024. Should I proceed with the OINP application or wait for a permanent resident invitation through STEM? Additionally, can I apply for a work permit extension based on the OINP invitation? Is there minimum wage requirement for ONIP? I am sitting on 490 score. Thank you

OINP invite vs. waiting for a federal STEM draw when your work permit is about to expire
Ishan Pandya if you follow previous draw trends, most draws happen biweekly on Tuesday/Wednesday. Considering after Oct 26 all categories have been invited at least once, we can fairly predict next probable draw as General draw coupled with STEM draw. IRCC known for doing the unpredictable so we can only speculate.
You don't know when IRCC will conduct the STEM draw. Why are you in two minds? Accept the invitation and Inform OINP about your profile expiry. Create a new EE profile and provide the details to OINP.
hopefully, you should receive tech draw invite in next draw by 27th or 28th feb or before expiry of ur OINP ITA. keep all documents ready to apply. good luck
