Minimum Requirements for Applicants
In order to be eligible under the Skilled Workers in Manitoba category of the MPNP, candidates must:
Be either a qualified temporary foreign worker OR an international student graduate;
International student graduates must have attended an authorized education or training program at a public, or registered private vocational, post-secondary institution in Manitoba. (Language programs are specifically excluded.)
The academic/vocational program must have been full-time and at least one academic year in length.
The candidate must have successfully completed the program and have been awarded a diploma, degree, or certificate.
Have a permanent, full-time job offer from their current Manitoba employer;
Have worked for their current Manitoba employer continuously for at least six months;
Any periods of self-employment, unauthorized work, or periods of employment during which candidates were engaged in full-time study (e.g. work experience gained on a co-op permit) will not be included when calculating the period of qualifying work experience in Manitoba.
Hold a valid Work Permit or Post-Graduation Work Permit from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC);
Have all qualifications for the position including training/education and any required licence or certification;
Have job-ready English; specifically, candidates must demonstrate the English or French proficiency to fulfill the duties of their job description;
Have a connection to Manitoba through employment that is stronger than ties they may have to another province;
Demonstrate in a Settlement Plan intention and ability to live, work and establish their work and family life in Manitoba as a permanent resident; and
Demonstrate sufficient settlement funds — generally $10,000 CAD for the principal applicant, plus $2,000 CAD for each dependent included in the application.
NOTE: A candidate who has graduated from a post-secondary program in a Canadian province other than Manitoba and who wants to apply to the MPNP under this category because he or she has been offered a job in Manitoba must first have been working for that Manitoba employer for at least one year in order to be eligible.
