Manitoba holds record immigration draw
The province invited significantly more candidates than in previous draws.
On April 26, 367 candidates received invitations to apply for nomination from the province of Manitoba.
Selection was made by Manitoba's immigration program among qualified professionals who are already in Manitoba, qualified professionals from abroad and Manitoba graduates.
The invitations, also known as letters of recommendation of application, together with the relevant requirements for the "Expression of Interest" (EOI) assessment were allocated as follows:
- skilled workers in Manitoba — 301 invitations, minimum score 440;
- skilled workers overseas — 11 invitations, minimum score 721;
- international education stream — 55 invitations, no EOI points required.
Passing scores in the stream for qualified overseas professionals are up from the previous selection held April 8, and down for qualified professionals in Manitoba.
Keep an eye on history of passing scores and number of invitations to increase your chances of immigration.
