最近安省动作频繁，2周时间内安排了至少3次系统检修，那么明天5月1日硕士和博士项目是否会开放呢？从审理进度来看，上一波抢到名额的同学已经基本拿到了省提名，已经具备了重开的条件。最重要的是上次关闭的时候可是有这句话：
The OINP will resume accepting applications for this stream within the next three months. Please check the OINP Updates webpage on May 1, 2017 for an update on when this stream will likely reopen.
也就是他们自己觉得5月1号这天将“很有可能开放”，不过他们跳票也不是没有过，去年说11月会重开，最后拖到了今年2月。
周五，安省公布了一条耐人寻味的公告：
1. IMPORTANT NOTICE
Re: Upcoming changes to the online application process for OINP streamsTo help ensure the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program’s (OINP) e-filing system can accommodate high volumes of users, changes are being made to the online application process.
Applicants will have to access the e-filing application service through OntarioImmigration.ca. Attempting to directly access the e-filing system through the Government of Ontario’s ONe-key system will cause delays and prevent you from completing your application.
Applicants should also avoid opening multiple tabs, or refreshing the page when trying to access the e-filing application.
Applicants will be queued upon entry to the e-filing system. If applicants attempt to refresh the page or click on links to other pages once they enter the e-filing system, they will lose their place in the queue. Applicants are encouraged to remain in the queue until the system is ready to proceed.
New!
The OINP has made some important changes to the application guides for the following streams: International Masters Graduate, International PhD Graduate, Ontario’s Express Entry Human Capital Priorities, and Ontario’s Express Entry French-Speaking Skilled Worker. Please refer to the updated application guides before registering.Please note: Applicants will be informed when the International Graduate (Masters and PhD) Streams are reopened via the OINP Updates webpage.
Please visit our Frequently Asked Questions page for additional information on the OINP.
2. Important: Please note, the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program e-Filing Portal will be unavailable until Monday, May 1, 2017 as the system undergoes maintenance. Any clients whose application deadlines are affected by the system maintenance are asked to contact the program directly at ontarionominee@ontario.ca.
Please note: Applicants will be informed when the International Masters and PhD Graduate Streams are reopened via the OINP Updates webpage.
首先我们看到加入了排队机制，应该不会再出现所有人都在挤却没有几个人能拿到名额的情况，而5月1号是这次系统维护结束的时间，会不会系统维护结束之后就通知重开了呢？我们拭目以待。
