Skilled Worker in Manitoba, International Education Stream, and Skilled Worker

in administrative, financial, and business services (NOC 10), administrative
and financial support and supply chain logistics occupations (NOC 14), and
helpers, labourers, and transport operators (NOC 75). All other eligible
profiles not selected in the occupation-specific stream were also considered,
with 237 LAAs issued. The lowest-ranked candidates scored 604 in the
occupation-specific selection and 661 in the general pool.
The International Education Stream issued 57 LAAs to
eligible candidates, supporting international graduates contributing to
Manitoba’s workforce.
For the Skilled Worker Overseas stream, 41 candidates were
