Manitoba PNP Draw & Northwest Territories Reaches Intake Cap: Key Information for Applicants
Canada’s Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) continue to be an excellent pathway for skilled workers seeking permanent residency. Recent updates from Manitoba and the Northwest Territories (NWT) have generated excitement—and a sense of urgency—among applicants. Here’s a clear breakdown of the recent developments and their implications.
Manitoba’s Latest PNP Draw: Who Was Invited?
Manitoba recently held a new provincial draw, issuing Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs) to candidates in the Skilled Workers in Manitoba and Skilled Workers Overseas streams. Here are the key highlights:
- Skilled Workers in Manitoba: Priority is given to those already working in the province.
- Skilled Workers Overseas: The draw targeted occupations that are in high demand.
- Minimum CRS Score: The required scores vary by stream, with some candidates being invited even with lower scores due to labor market needs.
