For qualified foreign workers with a job offer who wish to live and work in a participating community, such as Lanark, Leeds and Grenville, Sarnia-Lambton, or Thunder Bay, the REDI pilot provides a route to permanent residence.
The pilot does not have its own application procedure. In order to be eligible for targeted pilot draws, candidates who have received employment offers from Ontario companies in one of the designated pilot communities must apply using the regular OINP Expression of Interest (EOI) process.
