Manitoba PNP Expression of Interest system
To receive an invitation under either the Skilled Workers in Manitoba or the Skilled Workers Overseas category, the candidate must first submit an Expression of Interest (EoI) to the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program(MPNP). Each Expression of Interest profile submitted is then assessed on the basis of various human capital factors such as age, education, work experience, previous connections to the province etc. and then awarded a score out of 1000. The highest-scoring candidates are invited to apply for a provincial nomination from Manitoba. In the July 31 draw, the minimum score required for candidates to obtain an LAA was 475, while Skilled Workers Overseas candidates had to score at least 764 points to be eligible.
Manitoba PNP Immigration Streams
The Skilled Worker Overseas category and Skilled Workers in Manitoba category allow Manitoba to nominate skilled workers capable of supporting the labour market needs of the province. Those applying from outside Canada under these two streams must prove a previous connection to the province or an invitation issued under one of the Strategic Recruitment Initiatives of the Manitoba PNP draw. Skilled Workers in Manitoba candidates must also have a full-time permanent job offer from a Manitoba employer. The International Education Stream targets those candidates who have graduated from one of the post-secondary educational institutions of Manitoba and possess skills that are in-demand in the province.
Manitoba PNP Express Entry
