Applicants for the New! Skilled Worker Overseas Stream - let's all gather here!

If you haven't read it on the MPNP website, there's a new stream for Skilled Worker Overseas. The renewed stream will offer a new pathway to nominate qualified applicants for the federal Express Entry program. Priority will be given to candidates with close family connections in Manitoba and spouses who have the language proficiency, training and experience to quickly find jobs in in-demand occupations.

There will be two pathways:

Manitoba Express Entry Pathway
Human Capital Pathway

"If the position requires licensure or certification, you must apply to the regulatory body to have your qualifications and skills assessed and/or pass an examination"

Does this mean I have to get my professional engineering before applying?

I'm guessing that the Strategic initiative won't be affected because it"s a totally different stream but I may be wrong.

I wish this strategic initiative stream comes to an end soon. It wastes my whole year waiting for it to end. Hope for the best in 2018. Hopefully it comes out to be a lucky year for all of us regarding immigration.

I really hope so. Looks like the last Overseas Recruitment Mission in Manila is scheduled on November 20th – 24th, 2017. I imagine that there's going to longer wait times because of this stream (for existing non-express entry applicants) But I'm positive that with the New Manitoba Express Entry Pathway, it's going to be quicker because they said, priority will be given to applicants with connection in Manitoba thru either friend or relative.
