https://youtu.be/bKs_HHt0X14?si=EwHDp62kJ1rWmR1c If your work permit has expired or is about to expire, the Manitoba Temporary Public Policy offers a valuable opportunity for eligible individuals to extend their stay and work legally in Canada. This policy is aimed at reducing disruptions in the workforce and supporting those with ties to Manitoba. It is effective from April 22, 2025, and remains valid until December 2025. Who Is Eligible? To qualify, your work permit must have either: – Expired in 2024 – Expired earlier in 2025 – Be expiring within the next 45 days Even individuals holding a visitor record may qualify, as long as they meet at least one of six eligibility criteria outlined by the province. However, there are important cut-off conditions: 1. If you submitted an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile after January 15, 2025, you are not eligible. 2. If you have received a Letter of Advice to Apply (LAA), you are not eligible. 3. If you had an active EOI as of January 15, 2025, but it has since expired, you may still be eligible by creating a new EOI profile. Required Documents To apply under this policy, candidates must submit three essential documents: 1. A Letter of Employment (different from a job offer) 2. A valid work permit (current or expired, but valid until at least May 7, 2024) 3. A copy of your Expression of Interest (EOI) profile It is crucial to understand the difference between a “letter of employment” and a “job offer”, as visa officers will consider this while evaluating your application. What Do Visa Officers Look For? When assessing your work permit application, visa officers will focus on the accuracy and completeness of your forms and documents. Many applications were rejected last year due to errors in the IMM 5707 form (Family Information Form). Carefully reading and following all instructions is vital to prevent rejection. If you’re unsure about your eligibility or how to prepare your documents correctly, it’s best to seek professional advice.

https://youtu.be/2ylmJJJEhQw?si=NIh0mt-1awGJwo7C Under current guidelines, graduates of a 2-year program in Manitoba can obtain a maximum of 865 points for MPNP. This score is considered excellent for success under the MPNP. Based on 2025 draw data for the International Education Stream (IES): The stream selected 59 and 19 candidates in separate draws. Graduates of 2-year Manitoba programs were included in one of these two draws. The review of the three MPNP draws in 2025 shows that graduates with comparable scores were selected each time. This indicates a positive trend and strong future potential for success under the MPNP. What If You Started Right After High School? If you entered a 2-year program directly after Grade 12 and have no prior work experience, your maximum achievable score is about 755. Based on current thresholds, this score reflects very limited or almost no chances of receiving a nomination under MPNP. Graduates of a 2-year diploma or certificate program receive a 3-year Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) and this is a significant advantage. With proper planning, this timeframe provides ample opportunity to: – Gain eligible full-time work experience – Apply for nomination under the Skilled Worker in Manitoba or International Education streams Compared to fresh university or even PhD graduates, 2-year diploma holders in Manitoba are currently in a better position for immigration success due to MPNP structure and prioritization. A 3-year PGWP is a valuable window, but success requires timely action and strategic guidance. To properly navigate your path and maximize your chances, consider seeking support from professionals.

https://youtu.be/Ge4k4lf-YgY?si=cHxy3K6hHtB6Np0H If you’re studying in Manitoba and planning to settle here — it’s time for a reality check. The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) has taken a major turn in 2025, and it’s not in favour of fresh international graduates. The facts are clear — your chances are slimmer than ever. The Numbers That Matter The provincial quota for 2025 has been cut in half — from 9,500 to just 4,750 total nominations. As per 2023’s draws, only 3,017 spots are available for the Skilled Worker in Manitoba stream, which is the main route for international graduates and workers. What Does That Mean for Students? Let’s break it down: There are 15,290 total study permit holders in Manitoba. 10,570 are post-secondary students, and 6,910 are university students. That is over 10,000 eligible graduates — fighting for just 3,107 quotas. To add to those numbers, there are 3,540 college students and 44,000 work permit holders in Manitoba. Now you’re competing with more than 59,000 potential candidates for a slice of just 3,170 nominations. That’s a 5.2% chance; or worse. Many students come to Manitoba with hopes of securing PR through a short 1-year diploma. Here’s the hard truth: Even if you have: A master’s degree from back home A diploma from Manitoba Full-time experience Your maximum MPNP score would be around 875, a level that even a PhD graduate may not reach under the current system. But the problem is that you will get only 1 year of PGWP with this diploma. In current scenario, it is impossible to complete the process in 1 year. This is a data-backed reality. If you’re a fresh graduate or a current student in Manitoba, do not rely on outdated assumptions and do not expect guaranteed pathways Thousands of hopeful applicants are headed for disappointment this year. Don’t be one of them. Book your free assessment today with the best immigration lawyer in Winnipeg, and take control of your future with clarity.
