Eligibility Overview

Eligibility varies by stream but generally includes education, work experience, language proficiency, and a genuine intention to live and work in Manitoba.

Application Process

  1. Submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to the MPNP portal.
  2. If selected, receive a Letter of Advice to Apply (LAA) for provincial nomination.
  3. Once nominated, apply for permanent residence through IRCC under the Provincial Nominee Class.
