To apply to the Skilled Worker Overseas (SWO) pathway, you must demonstrate an established connection to Manitoba through either
the support of family members or friends (Manitoba Support),
previous education or work experience in the province (Manitoba Experience), or
an Invitation to Apply received directly from the MPNP as part of a Strategic Recruitment Initiative (Manitoba Invitation).
You can find more information about the different types of eligible connections below.
In addition to your connection to Manitoba, you must score at least 60 points based on five factors: language proficiency, age, work experience, education, and adaptability. If you do not have a connection to Manitoba, you are not eligible to apply under SWO, regardless of your points total.
