Manitoba Immigration Information
On March 3, 2022, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) issued the Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel (CUAET) allowing Ukrainian citizens to flee and come to Canada. CUAET is the most basic route for Ukrainian citizens to apply to come to Canada.
IRCC will allow an unlimited number of Ukrainian residents to apply for a fee-free, streamlined temporary resident visa through the CUAET, allowing them to travel to Canada and work for any employer as soon as they apply for an Open Work Permit. Biometrics for temporary residency visas can be done at over 30 diplomatic stations throughout Europe.
Process for applying to the Skilled Worker Overseas Stream in steps:
Immigration to Manitoba via the MPNP stream, which is designed to target and bring Skilled Workers to Manitoba, is a three-step process, as follows:
- Send in your Expression of Interest (EOI).
- The top-scoring qualified applicants with a prior connection to Manitoba will be invited to apply for the MPNP.
- Following an in-depth assessment, the MPNP identified qualifying individuals, who would then be required to file a separate application to the Government of Canada for the permanent resident visa for you (primary/main applicant) and your family (dependents).
Manitoba immigration officials are always recruiting applicants to apply under their Skilled Worker Overseas Stream, but some new ways are being offered within this immigration category.
