On December 14, 2021, the Office of Immigration and Multiculturalism (OIM) and the Department of Immigration, Population Growth and Skills (IPGS) of the government of Newfoundland and Labrador called for projects to support the economic advancement of newcomers in the province.
The 2022-23 application process will consist of two stages, and priority for funding will be given to applications that are directly related to economic integration and settlement areas. For the stage one, all applications have to be submitted by 11:59 PM, January 21, 2022.
Based on the selection of their concept note, applicants will be invited to participate in the second stage of the application process. It will also require the submission of a complete proposal into the Labour Market Programs Support System (LaMPSS).
The submission of a concept note is the first stage in a two-stage application process while a concept note is a summary document containing a brief description of the idea of the project and potential objectives.
Concept notes will be reviewed by OIM in the first stage of the process. In response to this evaluation, OIM will inform proponents whether they are invited to submit a full proposal through the Labour Market Programs Support System (LaMPSS) online self-service system.
