The Manitoba government has announced a two-year Manitoba-specific extension to facilitate work permits for prospective Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) candidates.
“By allowing eligible candidates to extend their work permits, we’re helping more Manitoba workers and families to continue building their lives in Manitoba,” said Labour and Immigration Minister Malaya Marcelino. “This is good news for our economy, businesses and communities across Manitoba.”
MPNP candidates whose work permits expired in 2024 or expire in 2025 will be eligible to apply for the two-year Manitoba-specific work permit extension beginning April 22 under temporary public policy. The temporary public policy will apply to individuals currently employed in Manitoba who are intending to establish themselves as a permanent resident in Manitoba and whose work permit will expire in 2025 or expired in 2024.
Persons who meet the criteria may apply for a support letter from the province by completing an online submission form that will be available as of April 22.
