Manitoba PNP draw invited 250 PR under skilled overseas worker category.

250 invitations to permanent residence were issued on June 25th, 2024, as part of the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) under the Skilled Worker Overseas category.

This draw focused on eligible foreign worker profiles that declared their present occupation as one of the following and had an MPNP EOI score of 516.

31301: Psychiatric nurses and registered nurses
31302: Practitioners of Nursing
32101 – Practical nurses with licenses
33102: Orderlies, patient service associates, and nurse aides
For the Skilled Worker Overseas category, this is one of the lowest cutoff scores that has been observed recently.

In this MPNP draw, 93 of the invited individuals possessed both a job seeker validation code and a verified Express Entry profile.

 

Skilled Worker Overseas Stream (SWO)

Designed for foreign skilled workers, the SWO provides two pathways:

1. The Manitoba Express Entry Pathway is available to individuals who meet the requirements of another MPNP stream, have close family ties to Manitoba, are skilled in one of the province’s high-demand occupations, and meet Express Entry requirements.
2. The Human Capital Pathway emphasizes the opportunity for qualified foreign migrants with expertise in in-demand occupations to find employment in Manitoba when they arrive.
