The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) offers various streams to facilitate immigration to the province based on different criteria and objectives. These streams include:
Skilled Worker Stream
This stream is designed for skilled workers who have the skills, education, and work experience required by Manitoba employers. It includes two pathways: one for applicants with a connection to Manitoba, such as having a job offer or previous education or work experience in the province, and another for those outside Manitoba.
International Education Stream
This stream targets international students who have graduated from a Manitoba post-secondary institution and have the skills required by Manitoba employers. It includes pathways for graduates in specific in-demand occupations and those with a job offer from a Manitoba employer.
Business Investor Stream
This stream is aimed at entrepreneurs and business investors who wish to establish or purchase a business in Manitoba. It includes pathways for entrepreneurs who want to start a new business and those interested in purchasing an existing business in the province.
Farm Investor Pathway
This pathway is designed for individuals with farm business management experience and sufficient capital to establish and operate a farm in rural Manitoba. It aims to support the agricultural sector in the province and contribute to rural economic development.
Morden Community Driven Immigration Initiative
This initiative allows the city of Morden, Manitoba, to nominate skilled workers and their families for permanent residency based on community support and involvement. It aims to attract individuals who can contribute to the community’s growth and development.
Manitoba Express Entry Pathway
Aligned with the federal Express Entry system, this pathway allows Manitoba to nominate candidates from the Express Entry pool who have the skills and experience needed in the province’s labor market. It provides a streamlined pathway to permanent residency for eligible candidates.
These streams offer different pathways for individuals with various backgrounds and objectives to immigrate to Manitoba and contribute to the province’s economic and social development. Each stream has its own eligibility criteria and application process, providing flexibility and opportunities for skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and international graduates to settle and succeed in Manitoba.
