Manitoba has now issued 4,273 invitations to PNP candidates so far this year.

Manitoba issued 205 invitations to immigration candidates on November 5. Manitoba newest PNP draw for welcoming new immigrants for provincial nomination.

The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) encouraged proficient employees and Global graduates through three immigration teams :

    • Skilled workers in Manitoba

    • International education stream

    • Skilled workers overseas

The invitations, also Called Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs), were Dispersed as follows along with their Expression of Interest (EOI) score requirement :

    ♦ Skilled Workers in Manitoba— 166 LAAs with a score of at least 461

    ♦ Skilled Workers Overseas— 16 LAAs with a score of at least 708; and

    ♦ International Education Stream— 23 LAAs, no EOI score requirement.

Out of the 205 LAAs issued, seven went to Express Entry candidates. The MPNP says they will refuse any of these candidates who don’t own a valid Express Entry ID, a job seeker validation code, and verifiable experience in an occupation on Manitoba’s In-demand Occupations list.

The MPNP only considered Skilled Worker Overseas candidates in this draw when they had been directly encouraged below a tactical recruitment initiative.

If candidates scored higher than the minimum ranking, but did not receive an LAA, it could be because :

    • their third-party language test did not have a valid test number

    • their language test is no longer valid; or

    • the candidate was invited under a strategic recruitment initiative, but they did not send a valid invitation number.

The MPNP stated that candidates that are in these scenarios can upgrade their EOI profile with the proper data so as to be considered for another draw.Manitoba newest PNP draw for welcoming new immigrants for provincial nomination.

Nominees that are working in a controlled occupation have been invited in this draw. The MPNP says that they may refuse candidates that aren’t really working in a regulated occupation, or who do not provide evidence of having completed all licensing measures to be employed in Manitoba. Those who are in this situation have the choice to decline their LAA.

The November 5 draw brings the total number of LAAs issued thus far this year around 4,273.
