Skilled Workers Obtain ITAs In Manitoba’s Latest PNP Draw

Skilled workers obtain ITAs in Manitoba’s latest PNP draw, i.e, the province had its second draw of August, thus issuing invitations to skilled workers through the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP). 

Invitations were extended based on skilled work experience, scoring results, and involvement in strategic recruitment initiatives. 

This is Manitoba’s 17th provincial immigration draw of the year. 

Draw Results 

As skilled workers obtain ITAs in Manitoba’s latest PNP draw, let us discuss some draw results as well. 

Well, on August 21, the MPNP held a draw under the Skilled Worker Stream, which consists of two pathways: 

• Skilled Worker Overseas
• Skilled Worker in Manitoba 

A total of 77 Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs) were issued, 18 of which were sent to foreign nationals who declared a valid Express Entry profile number & job seeker validation code. 

The score of the lowest-ranked applicant in the Expression of Interest draw (EOI) #252 was 612. 

Only applicants who confirmed the MPNP had directly invited them as part of a strategic recruitment initiative obtained invitations. 

This draw saw the issuance of LAAs through the following strategic initiatives: 

The MPNP notes that applicants who met or exceeded the cut-off score but did not obtain an LAA may have been affected by the following issues: 

• Reporting completion of a recognized language test but failing to enter a valid rest number, or using results that had expired by the time of the draw
• Indicating an invitation through a strategic recruitment initiative without including a valid invitation number in their EOI

What Is A Strategic Recruitment Initiative? 

Strategic recruitment initiatives are targeted efforts led by employers or communities to assist Manitoba in identifying and inviting applicants with essential skills that are in high demand but short in supply in the province. 

Through these initiatives, local employers fill long-standing workforce needs while also enabling qualified foreign nationals to obtain permanent residency. 

To take part, employers need to satisfy eligibility criteria for their vacancies and complete Manitoba’s ABC recruitment Process. 

Upon arrival, they are authorized to submit information on international applicants to Manitoba’s Employer Services. 

Applicants need to meet specific eligibility criteria, including age, education, language proficiency, and work experience, as well as any additional conditions associated with the selected stream.
