Manitoba PNP Draw

On October 8, 2020, another 191 immigration candidates received invitations to apply for a provincial nomination through the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program [MPNP]. Of the 191 invitations issued, 20 went to Express Entry candidates.

This is Manitoba PNP’s EOI Draw #100. The first draw was held by the MPNP on May 20, 2015.

Candidates that have been invited to apply for a provincial nomination can – if successful in securing the provincial nomination – proceed to apply for Canadian permanent residence with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada [IRCC].

Provincial nominees get an additional 600 points towards their Comprehensive Ranking System [CRS] score. The CRS comes into play when the profiles are in the Express Entry pool. The higher the CRS score, the sooner can the candidate expect to be invited by IRCC to apply for Canada PR.

Note. – Of the total 191 LAAs issued, 20 went to candidates that had declared “a valid Express Entry ID and job seeker validation code”.

Those wishing to immigrate to Canada – with the intention of settling in Manitoba – can begin the process with the registration of their Expression of Interest [EOI] profile with the MPNP.

An EOI with the MPNP would be required in order to be considered eligible for receiving an LAA through the Skilled Workers in Manitoba or Skilled Workers Overseas streams.

The MPNP’s Skilled Workers in Manitoba and Skilled Workers Overseas immigration pathways allow the province to nominate skilled workers with the most potential of supporting the labour market needs in Manitoba.

Individuals applying from overseas are required to have an established connection to Manitoba – previous Manitoba experience, family or friends in the province, or a direct invitation through any of the Strategic Recruitment Initiatives of the MPNP.

There is no requirement of being physically present within Manitoba at the time of applying.

Candidates under the Skilled Workers in Manitoba stream must have a full-time permanent job offer from a Manitoba employer, among other eligibility requirements.

International students that have graduated from Manitoba might be eligible for receiving an LAA through the MPNP’s International Education Stream, provided they possess skills that are in demand in the province.

For 2020, the MPNP has an allotment of 5,000 base nominations, along with 875 Express Entry spaces.

Manitoba has issued a total of 3,891 LAAs in 2020 so far.
