Manitoba
MPNP.

The MPNP ties eligibility to a genuine connection to Manitoba — work, study, family or a strategic-recruitment link. Skilled Worker and International Education streams use an EOI pool; Manitoba issues Letters of Advice to Apply to ranked and targeted candidates twice a month.

How does the MPNP connect to Express Entry?
If you're nominated through the Express Entry pathway, an Express-Entry-aligned stream, you receive 600 additional CRS points, which effectively guarantees an invitation to apply in a following Express Entry round.
What is the MPNP scoring system?
EOI ranking scored out of 1,000. Expression-of-Interest ranking out of 1,000; a 60-point self-assessment minimum applies to be eligible to apply.
