The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) allows the province to nominate foreign workers and international graduates of its post-secondary institutions for Canadian permanent residence through its three popular immigration streams – Skilled Workers in Manitoba, Skilled Workers Overseas, and International Education stream.
The Skilled Workers Overseas and Skilled Workers in Manitoba streams are designed to allow Manitoba invite immigration candidates who meet its labour market needs. In order to apply under both these 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.
If invited candidates successfully receive a nomination from the MPNP, they will get an additional 600 points toward their overall Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, which increase their chances to receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) in an Express Entry draw.
The MPNP has now invited 6,789 immigration candidates to apply for a provincial nomination for Canadian Permanent Residency so far in 2021.
