MPNP 2025 Allocation Update

The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) receives an allocation of nominations each year from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

Recently, the MPNP received an increase of 1,489 nominations for the year, bringing the total to 6,239 nominations for 2025. This increase bolsters MPNP’s capacity to address provincial labour market needs and deliver on Manitoba’s strategic priorities.
