February 12 Manitoba PNP Draw

Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) held its third draw of 2021 and invited 296 skilled workers and international graduates to apply for provincial nominations through the following three streams:

 

  • Skilled Workers in Manitoba ;
  • International Education Stream ;
  • Skilled Workers Overseas.

 

The invitations, otherwise known as the Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs) and the Expression of Interest (EOI) score requirement was issued as follows:

 

  • Skilled Workers in Manitoba: 240 LAAs and a minimum score of 514;
  • Skilled Workers Overseas: 23 LAAs and a minimum score of 676; and
  • International Education Stream: 33 LAAs (no EOI score requirement).

 

The above streams facilitate the entry of foreigners who can demonstrate their connections with Manitoba, be it work experience/job offer in Manitoba, education in Manitoba, or familial ties in Manitoba.  

 

Any interested candidate must register their EOI with MPNP to receive nominations. Upon registration, the profiles are evaluated out of 1,000 points for their human capital factors as well as the likes of their connections to Manitoba and ranked accordingly. 

 

In addition to it, a total of 20 LAAs went to Express Entry candidates.

 

Express Entry candidates with successful provincial nominations are now awarded an additional 600 points towards their overall CRS score. This would effectively guarantee their invitation to apply (ITA) for permanent residence in Canada in the subsequent Express Entry draw. 

 

So far, the province has invited a total of 786 candidates in 2021.
