Skilled Workers in Manitoba 157 LAAs with a score of at least 461;
Skilled Workers Overseas 13 LAAs with a score of at least 718; and
International Education Stream 18 LAAs, no EOI score requirement.
Out of the 188 LAAs issued, 13 went to Express Entry candidates. The MPNP says they will refuse any of these candidates who do not have a valid Express Entry ID, a job seeker validation code, and verifiable experience in an occupation on Manitoba’s In-demand Occupations list.
The MPNP only considered Skilled Worker Overseas candidates in this draw if they were directly invited under a strategic recruitment initiative.
If candidates scored higher than the minimum ranking, but did not receive an LAA, it could be because:
their third-party language test did not have a valid test number;
their language test is no longer valid; or
the candidate was invited under a strategic recruitment initiative, but they did not send a valid invitation number.
The MPNP said that candidates who are in one of these scenarios can update their EOI profile with the correct information in order to be considered for the next draw.
Candidates who are working in a regulated occupation have been invited in this draw. The MPNP says that they may refuse candidates who are not actually working in a regulated occupation, or who do not provide proof of having completed all licensing steps to be employed in Manitoba. Those who are in this situation have the option to decline their LAA.
