The MPNP assesses your application based on how well the information and supporting documents you submit demonstrate that you meet the eligibility criteria for the stream under which you applied.
Successful applicants are those who have the employment and/or educational background, the language skills and the adaptability to establish successfully in Manitoba.
The online application tool will tell you what supporting documents to upload. The MPNP will assess whether your documents support the information you have provided in your application.
For example:
If the MPNP considers your documentation insufficient your application may be considered ineligible or incomplete for assessment. If that is the case, the MPNP may likely refuse your application and will inform you of the decision in writing.
Note: Documents must be made available to us at the time of assessment. The MPNP does not consider information or documents received after we have assessed your application.
Each applicant must declare an intended occupation. The MPNP will assess your potential to establish successfully in Manitoba in your intended occupation.
Before you apply, research your occupation using the Working in Manitoba Tool. Find out the qualification requirements for working in your occupation in Manitoba. Doing research and planning will help you complete your MPNP application successfully.
When you look up your occupation you will see that some occupations are “regulated” in Manitoba. This means you must go through a licensing process before you can work. This is considered in assessment because it affects your ability to find a job in your intended occupation.
The MPNP is not a sponsorship program. We select skilled workers with the ability and intention to settle in Manitoba as permanent residents.
Your financial situation and the community in which you’ve chosen to settle are two considerations in adaptability.
As part of the assessment, the MPNP may consider your net worth as an indication of your potential to establish successfully.
Adjusting to life in Manitoba will take some time. That is why it is recommended that MPNP applicants (except those currently in Manitoba) have at least C$10,000 plus C$2,000 in funds for their spouse and each accompanying dependant to support yourself and your family while you are looking for a job as well as pay your Government of Canada immigration fees and travel expenses to Manitoba.
Settlement Plan
People applying under the five minimum factors (Option D on the page Eligbility) must demonstrate their adaptability by preparing a Settlement Plan.
Your Settlement Plan must show:
Your Settlement Plan must be endorsed by a close relative (as described in the online application) who has been living in Manitoba as a permanent resident for at least one year. Your relative must review your plan, and complete and submit Settlement Plan – Part 2.
