MPNP Draw Overview – April 3, 2025

https://youtu.be/YSRfZTB9hIU?si=auU7vG8sco-aTEFI The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) conducted a record-breaking draw on April 3, 2025! But not in a way many were expecting. This draw marked the smallest number of invitations ever issued in MPNP history, with only 4 candidates invited under the Skilled Worker Overseas stream. The minimum CRS score required was 721. While the number of invitees so far in 2025 (243) is similarto the same period in 2024 (224), major structural changes are unfolding thatall prospective immigrants must understand. The biggest factor influencing this historic drop in invitations is the drastic cut to Manitoba’s 2025 immigration nomination quota from 9500 to 4750. This means a large portion of the 2025 quota is already being used to process the 8,224 applicants who received invitations last year. As a result, most 2025 EOIs will likely only lead to nominations in 2026, not this year.   If you’ve submitted an Expression of Interest (EOI) this year, you must prepare for: Longer wait times Higher CRS cut-offs Increased competition within streams like Skilled Worker Overseas, which now dominate the draws The April 3rd draw is a clear indicator that only top-scoring applicants with Manitoba ties or job offers are currently being selected. You Can Improve Your Chances to stay competitive in this environment. Here are a few ways:                  1.  Retake your language test (IELTS/CELPIP) for a better score Gain additional work experience if possible Secure a job offer or strengthen your Manitoba connection Explore other PNP programs or federal streams like Express Entry The April 3rd MPNP draw sends a powerful message to applicants: high scores, strong documentation, and strategic planning are more important than ever in 2025.

MPNP: A Tough Path for Manitoba University Graduates in 2025

https://youtu.be/YmKP50E7kAg?si=lMlYfl0aDWOLhKCp The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) has always been a key route for international students looking to stay in Canada. But in 2025, that path has become steeper than ever. The MPNP quota has been slashed by 50%, dropping from 9,500 nominations in 2024 to just 4,750 this year. This change follows a federal directive to reduce immigration levels and shift focus away from international student retention. The first two draws of 2025 have introduced high and restrictive criteria. To be selected, applicants needed to meet conditions like: 4 years of full-time work experience in the last 5 years A master’s degree A close relative in Manitoba These are not easy conditions to meet; especially for recent graduates who may have just entered the workforce. Let’s look at the numbers: In 2024, there were 5 general draws with scores ranging from 823 to 872 In 2025, only one general draw occurred with a sky-high cutoff of 861 Compared to that, the maximum score a Manitoba graduate can earn just 785 (Watch video for explanation). That means even top-performing graduates are being left behind. Let’s be honest! An MPNP nomination is nearly impossible right now for most Manitoba graduates. The program has shifted toward highly skilled, highly experienced professionals, and short-term PGWP holders are at a major disadvantage. At A&M Canadian Immigration Law Corporation, we help you look beyond assumptions and build a strategic immigration plan that fits your real profile. Don’t waste your time chasing impossible scores.

Manitoba Skilled Worker-Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) Trends & Prediction: Part 2

https://youtu.be/c0nu-HAf12Y?si=sQpQhzWi2MQXI63h With Manitoba’s Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) facing major changes in 2025, understanding each Skilled Worker stream is more important than ever. If you’re applying blindly, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment.  Skilled Worker Manitoba: This year, Manitoba’s nomination quota has been slashed from 9,500 to just 4,750—that’s a 50% cut. And yes, scores are going up across the board. Skilled Workers in Manitoba is one of the most popular streams for applicants already working in Manitoba. In 2024, the selected applicant’s score Ranged from 823 – 872. This year, the score will continue to rise due to reduced quotas and increased competition. Close Relative in Manitoba This stream is for applicants with close family ties (siblings, parents, etc.) living in Manitoba. In 2024, the Score started from 607 and ended at 840.  We are expecting a tighter cutoff, especially if demand continues to grow. Manitoba Graduates Graduates of Manitoba post-secondary institutions, often on Post-Graduation Work Permits (PGWP), fall into this stream. Last year, the score Ranged from 772 to 845. And in 2 draws of 2025, the scores were 838 and 844. Occupation-Specific Selection This stream was originally wide open for anyone in a listed occupation, like healthcare workers, transport drivers, and tradespeople. Early in 2024, all qualifying applicants under targeted NOC codes were invited and later, the selection became more competitive, based on both occupation +score.
