Dear future neighbour,

In response to the challenges Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP) holders and other temporary residents are currently facing in Canada, the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) will temporarily prioritize applicants with expired or expiring work permits.

Applicants are expected to inform the province if their work permit has expired or is expiring within the next 45 days by using the link below:

Please note that it is your responsibility to provide the MPNP with accurate, up to date information and to notify the program of any changes to your application or status in Canada. Also, it is your responsibility to ensure that your immigration status in Canada remains valid.
