Overview of the Manitoba PNP
The first PNP in Canada was the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP). In 1998, it was changed into a permanent immigration scheme. Based on the province’s economic and labor market needs, the program was started to aid in the development of its economy through immigration. The MPNP received 418 new immigrants in its first year. Today, the province uses the program to nominate more than 5,000 new immigrants each year. The MPNP has had huge success in Manitoba. In fact, without it, Manitoba’s GDP could have dropped by as much as 30%.
Also popular with newcomers in Manitoba. Being able to immigrate through the MPNP is much easier if you have friends or family in Manitoba. Additionally, more than 90% of provincial nominees find employment in their first year. The province has a high retention rate, with approximately 90% choosing to remain there.

Manitoba Skilled Workers in Manitoba
The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP), a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) run by the province of Manitoba, is a collection of immigration streams known as Skilled Workers in Manitoba (SWM). Three immigration streams under the title of “Skilled Workers in Manitoba” are targeted at foreign nationals who already have work experience or a job offer in Manitoba and who have the skills and training required to succeed in the Manitoba labor force.
Successful candidates will get an official provincial nomination from Manitoba if they qualified through the stream for skilled workers in Manitoba. Candidates become eligible to apply for Canadian permanent resident status after receiving a provincial nomination.
The fact that a candidate meets the minimum eligibility requirements does not ensure success. The MPNP Ranking System will be used to analyze all candidates, and only the most competitive individuals will be invited to submit applications.
