On June 26, 2023, the Government of Manitoba held the 15th draw for Ukrainian candidates. In this draw, the province invited 49 candidates through the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP).
To be eligible, applicants must be Ukrainian citizens, have a minimum of CLB 4 in each language band, have connections to the province (close relative, community ties, previous employment, or studies in Manitoba), and score at least 60 points in the EOI registration points-grid, and possess a valid language test in one of the official languages.
In total, the province invited 6,711 candidates in 2023, including 174 Ukrainian nationals.
How to apply for Manitoba PNP as a skilled worker overseas?
If you want to be eligible for the Skilled Worker Overseas (SWO) pathway, you have to prove that you have a strong relationship with Manitoba by:
- Having the support of family or friends (Manitoba assistance),
- having completed your study or worked in the province previously (Manitoba Experience), or
- having received an invitation to apply directly from the MPNP as part of a strategic recruitment initiative (Manitoba Invitation).
You must receive at least 60 points based on five different factors in addition to having a link to Manitoba: language proficiency, age, work experience, education, and adaptability. No matter how many points you have, you cannot apply under SWO if you have no connection to Manitoba.
