The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) seeks recent graduates, skilled workers, businesspeople and their families with the intention and ability to successfully settle and economically establish in Manitoba as permanent residents.  The MPNP consists of the following immigration streams:

Skilled Worker Stream

The MPNP for Skilled Workers in Manitoba nominates applicants who have a strong connection to our province through ongoing employment and sufficient skills, education and training, work experience and official language proficiency to make an immediate and ongoing contribution to the Manitoba economy and our community at large.

Ongoing Manitoba employment is a way for skilled workers to demonstrate they have the connection to Manitoba required to be eligible to apply to the MPNP for Skilled Workers in Manitoba.

The MPNP for Skilled Workers Overseas nominates applicants who demonstrate an established connection to Manitoba through:

International Education Stream

The new International Education Stream (IES) for Manitoba graduates is dedicated to providing international students graduating in Manitoba and meeting the needs of industry faster pathways to nomination.

The Career Employment Pathway provides faster nomination pathways for post-secondary students who graduate and find long-term employment in Manitoba in an in-demand occupation consistent with their training. If you meet these conditions, you will be eligible to apply to the MPNP immediately after graduating and obtaining the job offer.

If you are an international student who graduated in another province of Canada and/or are not working in an in-demand occupation, you may be eligible to apply under the Skilled Worker in Manitoba Stream.

The Graduate Internship Pathway provides faster nomination pathways for international student master and doctoral graduates through internships contributing to industry innovation in Manitoba. Graduates who complete an Accelerate or Elevate internship with Mitacs in Manitoba can apply to the MPNP immediately after graduation, whether or not they have a job offer. At UIC we can help you to guide you through the process and pathway to obtain your permanent residency through this program.

The international students who have graduated in Manitoba, have the opportunity to pursue entrepreneurship rather than employment. Once the applicant meets the conditions of their Business Performance Agreement, they are nominated for permanent residence. We can help you to select College/ Institution in Manitoba for International Studies and guide you through the process under this program.

Business Investor Stream allows Manitoba to recruit and nominate qualified business investors and entrepreneurs from around the world who have the intent and ability to start or purchase businesses in Manitoba.

AINP

Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP)

The Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) is an economic immigration program that nominates people for permanent residence in Alberta. Nominees must have skills and abilities to fill job shortages in Alberta, and be able to provide for their families. The program is run by both the Alberta government and the federal government.

If a person is nominated through the program, they may apply for permanent residence status together with their spouse or common-law partner and dependent children.

Prior to applying permanent residency under the Alberta Opportunity Stream (AOS), the TFW must have a valid temporary resident status in Canada that authorizes you to work in Canada (i.e. temporary foreign worker). Valid work permits are based on one of the following:

a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA)
a LMIA exemption for workers based on one of the following exemptions as determine by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC):
international trade agreements
workers transferred within a company
International Experience Canada

an open work permit issued by IRCC to
vulnerable workers who have demonstrated they are experiencing abuse or are at risk of abuse in the context of their employment in Canada, including under the Vulnerable Workers Open Work Permit (VWOWP) exemption, or
the family members of a vulnerable worker under the VWOWP exemption
a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) held by a graduate of an Alberta Advanced Education publicly funded post-secondary institution
PGWP holders must also meet specific occupation, education and work experience requirements as set out below.

The Alberta Express Entry Stream allows Alberta to nominate a limited number of qualified candidates from IRCC’s Express Entry system.
