The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) held its latest invitation round on November 5.
Total 205 invitations to apply for provincial nomination were issued to skilled workers and international graduates through three immigration streams of MPNP.
The invitations, also known as Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs), were distributed as follows along with their Expression of Interest (EOI) score requirement:
| Stream | Total Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs) | Expression of Interest (EOI) score requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Skilled Workers in Manitoba | 166 | 461 |
| Skilled Workers Overseas | 16 | 708 |
| International Education Stream | 23 | No EOI score requirement |
Out of the total 205 LAAs issued, 7 went to Express Entry candidates who have a valid Express Entry ID, a job seeker validation code, and verifiable experience in an occupation on Manitoba’s In-demand Occupations list.
The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) is one of the most popular Canadian PNPs that allows Manitoba to nominate foreign workers and international graduates of its post-secondary institutions for Canadian permanent residence through its three popular immigration pathways.
In order to apply under both the Skilled Workers Overseas and Skilled Workers in Manitoba categories, applicants need to first register an Expression of Interest (EOI) with the MPNP.
These EOI profiles are scored on the Manitoba points’ grid out of a total score of 1,000. Candidates with the highest scores are then invited to apply for provincial nomination through regular draws conducted by the MPNP.
Express Entry Candidates who receive a provincial nomination are awarded an additional 600 Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points and are effectively guaranteed an Invitation to Apply (ITA) from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada in subsequent Express Entry Draw.
This draw brings the total number of LAAs issued by MPNP so far this year up to 4,273.
