The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) conducted Expression of Interest Draw #120 on June 28, 2021, issuing a total of 1,017
Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs). Unlike typical draws that distribute
invitations across multiple streams, this round focused exclusively on the
Skilled Worker Overseas category with all candidates aligned to the federal
Express Entry system.
All 1,017 invitations were issued to applicants who declared
a valid Express Entry profile number and job seeker validation code, reflecting
Manitoba’s strategic emphasis on selecting overseas candidates with strong
federal alignment. The lowest-ranked candidate invited had a score of 565,
demonstrating both the competitive nature of this large-scale draw and
Manitoba’s effort to nominate a substantial number of high-quality candidates
efficiently.
Expression of Interest Draw #120 highlighted Manitoba’s
targeted approach to provincial nomination, prioritizing Skilled Worker
Overseas applicants who meet federal Express Entry requirements to facilitate
faster permanent residence processing. The scale of this draw underscored the
importance of having a fully completed and strategically prepared profile to
maximize the chances of receiving an invitation in highly competitive rounds.
