The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is a major immigration pathway in Canada, allowing provinces such as Ontario and Manitoba to nominate qualified migrants who fit the labour market demands of their respective regions. The PNP addresses regional talent gaps and promotes to more balanced demographic and economic growth throughout the country.

Ontario and Manitoba have their own PNP streams with distinct criteria.

1. Ontario– The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) offers various streams, including Employer Job Offer, Human Capital, and Express Entry. These are intended for individuals with the necessary skills, education, and job experience to contribute to Ontario’s economy.

2. Manitoba – The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) focuses on skilled workers, business people, and students who want to settle in the province. The MPNP has streams like the Skilled Worker in Manitoba, Skilled Worker Overseas, and the Manitoba Business Investor stream.

For individuals applying under these programs, being nominated by a province greatly increases their chances of receiving permanent residency through Canada’s direct provincial nomination.
