siddharth_pharma84,

You do have valid points. In the application form, point # 6 says we have to provide proof of funds, but does not say to be attached to the initial application. This will be surely required before getting the nomination (most likely as soon as the exploratory visit is completed). At the end of the application, proof of funds is not mentioned as a document to be attached. It asks only for the documents that I had mentioned in my earlier post.

As for your second response on my judgement / comment on the applicant qualifications and experience. Please keep in mind Morden or the nearest bigger city of Winkler, may or may not have jobs that offer a annual salary of CAD $ 70,000++. People with B.Tech and MBA or for that matter any double professional degrees ( even though these are not Canadianl college degrees), will target $ 70k ++within 2 or 3 years of getting Canadian experience. Based on this, the City of Morden will have a doubt if these professionals will live for at least 6-10 years in their city. There is every possibility of these professionals to look for greener pasture as soon as they attain citizenship.

I did not say the above keeping in mind any particular applicant. This is only an example. I hope you see my point.

Dear All,

Please I have a little question bothering me. Are we to fill, print and scan the application form and then attach to other documents or just fill the soft copy of the form and send like that?

Responses shall be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Ms. Voth

I intend applying for the Morden Community Driven Immigration Initiative under the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program. I am aware of the fact that applicants must take the IELTS examination of which they must score 5.0 or higher.

However, I am from an English speaking nation, and I had my university education in the US at bachelors level and UK at masters level, of which both programs were conducted in English language.

My question is, do these criterion guarantee me eligible without the IELTS? Please I will appreciate if I hear from you soon.

Thanks

SOTAJ,

You need to fill, print, and sign ( principal applicant), then scan and attach the requested documents on page 6. If you are applying for your spouse too, then both of you have to sign page 7 which is the Authorization to Disclose your info to MPNP.

Good luck

prince86,

I will attempt to answer your question.

Please visit the following link

www dot immigratemanitoba dot com/how-to-immigrate/mpnp-resources/common-questions

This site is not allowing me to post a "website link"

"An exception to the test requirement may be made for “native speakers” – a person who is fluent and has used English or French since earliest childhood as their language of communication in family, school, work and social life in a country where the official language is English or French"

First question to you is "which is your native country"
Second question - Is English the official language?

If you satisfy the above 2 questions and the conditions in the quotes above, then you might get exempted ( in my opinion) for the MPNP program.

Let us see if Ms. Voth agrees with this. I think for the FSWP, exemption is available only to English speaking country citizens like USA, UK, New Zealand, Australia and so on and citizens of Europe, Latin American and Asian countries may have to take the IELTS test.

Hello,
can any one who has been on an exploratory visit tell me what the experience
was like, and also how long did he or she waited before the visit.

Regards.

asifkhan,

To my knowledge, there are no chemical industries in Morden. There are manufacturing and steel products industries. Design Engineers, manufacturing engineers, general administration jobs are available at present.

stmani,

I am an applicant like you. I applied just early this month. We just have to wait and hope for the best. It appears not even one applicant from this thread seems to have got any communication from them other than acknowledgement of receipt of application.
