Draw criteria can be targeted, so meeting general eligibility or having a high score does not guarantee a Letter of Advice to Apply (LAA). Read our Manitoba PNP eligibility, streams and points guide before interpreting draw results.

How Manitoba PNP draws work
For applicable skilled-worker pathways, candidates submit an EOI profile. Manitoba ranks candidates using the provincial EOI framework and issues LAAs according to the published selection criteria. In 2026, invitations have included strategic recruitment and occupation-specific selection.
- EOI score: Different from the Skilled Worker Overseas 60/100 eligibility grid and federal Express Entry CRS.
- Targeting: Some rounds require a direct provincial recruitment invitation or current Manitoba employment in identified occupations.
- After an LAA: Invited skilled-worker applicants generally have 60 days to submit a full application, subject to the invitation instructions.
- Nomination: An invitation is not a nomination; an approved provincial nomination is not an automatic PR approval.
See MPNP pathway eligibility, Manitoba points systems and the official EOI guidance.
