The
Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) conducted Expression of Interest
(EOI) Draw #58 on February 15, 2019, issuing a total of 268 Letters of Advice
to Apply (LAAs) across its major immigration streams. This draw reflected
Manitoba’s continued focus on selecting skilled workers and international
graduates who could support the province’s labour market and economic
priorities.
Skilled Worker in Manitoba
The Skilled Worker in Manitoba stream issued 120 invitations.
Lowest-ranked candidate invited: 574
The cutoff score indicated competitive conditions among in-province applicants.
Candidates with stable employment in Manitoba, relevant work experience, and
strong language proficiency were more likely to receive invitations under this
stream.
International Education Stream
The International Education Stream (IES) issued 34
invitations to eligible Manitoba graduates.
This stream focuses on candidates who have completed an approved Manitoba
post-secondary program and meet employment eligibility requirements. Careful
preparation, proper documentation, and adherence to program guidelines remain
essential for successful nomination.
Skilled Worker Overseas
The Skilled Worker Overseas stream issued 22 invitations to
candidates directly invited by the MPNP under strategic recruitment
initiatives.
Lowest-ranked candidate invited: 726
These invitations highlighted Manitoba’s targeted approach to overseas
recruitment. Selected candidates typically demonstrate strong human capital
factors, including higher education credentials, skilled work experience,
language proficiency, and credible provincial connections aligned with
Manitoba’s labour market needs.
Expression of Interest Draw #58 reinforced Manitoba’s
strategic and selective immigration model, balancing support for skilled
workers already contributing to the provincial economy with targeted overseas
recruitment initiatives. Monitoring MPNP draw scores, stream allocations, and
eligibility requirements remains essential for prospective candidates planning
their Manitoba immigration pathway.
