Who was selected in Manitoba EOI Draw 277
The 53 invitations went to candidates with profiles submitted under either the Skilled Worker in Manitoba pathway or the Skilled Worker Overseas pathway. Candidates considered in the round had declared that they were directly invited by the MPNP through a strategic recruitment initiative.
The MPNP stated that Expressions of Interest from Skilled Worker Stream candidates were considered only if the candidates had been directly invited under a strategic recruitment initiative or through the Temporary Public Policy to Facilitate Work Permits for Prospective Provincial Nominee Program Candidates.

- Ethnocultural Communities: 12 invitations
- Francophone Community: 13 invitations

Express Entry-linked invitations
Six of the 53 Letters of Advice to Apply in this round were issued to Express Entry-linked candidates. The MPNP did not publish a minimum score for the draw.
Information candidates should check in their EOI
The MPNP said that candidates who met the listed selection criteria but did not receive a Letter of Advice to Apply may need to review information in their Expression of Interest profile. Reasons may include an invalid or missing test number for an approved third-party language test, an expired language test, or an invalid strategic recruitment initiative invitation number.
Candidates affected by one of these situations may update their EOI with the correct information to be considered in a future draw from the EOI pool.
