Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program Issues Invitations for Skilled Workers

On June 18, 2026, the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) issued invitations to apply for provincial nomination to 124 candidates under the Skilled Worker in Manitoba and Skilled Worker Overseas pathways.

Candidates invited in this round had declared that they were directly invited by the MPNP as part of a strategic recruitment initiative, or that they held Manitoba-supported work permits.

The largest proportion of invitations issued by the province went to candidates invited under the Employer Services initiative.

Draw details

Below is the full breakdown of the Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs) distribution by strategic recruitment initiative:

Strategic recruitment initiative LAAs issued
Employer Services 49
Temporary Public Policy to Facilitate Work Permits for Prospective Provincial Nominee Program Candidates (TPP) 32
Regional Communities 19
Francophone Community 15
Ethnocultural Communities 9

Among the 124 Letters of Advice to Apply issued in this draw, 22 went to candidates with a valid Express Entry profile number and job seeker validation code.

To qualify for consideration, candidates were required to indicate in their Expression of Interest (EOI) profile that they had been invited either through a recruitment mission or through the now-expired Temporary Public Policy to Facilitate Work Permits for Prospective Provincial Nominee Program Candidates (TPP).

On May 1, 2026, the MPNP had announced that it would conduct targeted EOI draws to invite individuals issued Support Letters under the TPP, beginning with those whose letters were approved between April 22 and June 30, 2025.

The province notes that certain candidates may have been excluded
