The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) continues to create pathways for skilled workers to build their future in Canada. On October 10, 2024, Manitoba PNP issued 234 Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs) to candidates across three key immigration streams. These successful candidates are now one step closer to receiving a provincial nomination, which brings them closer to Canadian permanent residency.
Manitoba’s PNP is designed to attract talented individuals who can meet the province’s labor market needs. The program is divided into various streams, allowing workers with different qualifications and backgrounds to immigrate to Manitoba. Those who receive LAAs must undergo further assessments, including submitting additional documents and passing a medical examination. If approved, they receive a provincial nomination, significantly boosting their chances of becoming permanent residents.
