What This Means for You:
- Start Work Right Away: If you’re a certified skilled tradesperson in another province or territory, you can begin working in Ontario immediately under the new “As of Right” rules — even while your paperwork is being finalized. You will be recognized as certified for up to 6 months, provided you submit proof of your credentials and meet the basic requirements.
- Skip the Extra Red Tape: You won’t have to repeat training or tests that have already been completed elsewhere in Canada.
- Fast-Tracked Processing: Applications are acknowledged within 10 business days and processed within 30 calendar days, so you’re not left waiting.
How to Get Started:
- Show Your Credentials: Submit your valid skilled trades certification from your home province or territory.
- Meet Ontario’s Standards: Complete any necessary local requirements if needed.
- Jump Into Work: Take advantage of “As of Right” access while your registration is reviewed.
