In the latest provincial draw held by the province of Manitoba, a total 224 candidates were invited to apply for a provincial nomination for Canada PR status in a draw that was held on September 25th.

Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) awards points to the candidates with an express profile based on the factors like age, language proficiency, work experience, etc. In case an express entry candidate is able to land a provincial nomination certificate, they are awarded 600 CRS points. With the latest express draw inviting express entry candidates at 462 CRS points, these many points make sure that the candidate is issued an Invitation to Apply (ITA) to apply for Canada PR Visa to the Immigration, Refugees & Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
For express entry candidates to be eligible to get invited by MPNP, they must have eligible work experience in an occupation that is in-demand in the province, among other major requirements, and submit a separate EOI with the MPNP.

Ever since I have spoken to Team Nationwide, I have received all kinds of support I have looked for, starting from transcripts to IELTS coaching, they have helped me with everything. I already have referred three of my friends to them because of the fabulous service delivered by them and shall be doing it in the future too.
Quality work and friendliness is why I decided to opt for Nationwide Visas for preparing my application for Permanent Residence in Canada. Today, my parents are proud of me for making the right choice, it has all become possible because of Nationwide.
Nothing influences me more than a recommendation from a trusted friend, I got reference for Nationwide Visas through one of my friends, who got his ITA with the help of Team Nationwide. They explained the documentation process in detail and made the correct recommendations that I cherish now.
Before initiating the immigration process, I was a bit skeptical, however, after having a word with their consultant who explained the whole process to me over the phone without trying to sell their service, I felt assured. I did not give it a second thought and initiated my immigration process. All the case managers at Nationwide Visas are well-versed with the process and never fall short of expectations whenever I walk up to them with any queries.
For the past 4 months, I had been struggling with understanding the immigration process and was looking for a consultant who could not only explain the process, but also guide me regarding what all options were available to me. So, after reading their reviews, I approached Nationwide Visas, and true to their reviews, they explained the whole process to me while also giving me clear information about the chances I had at securing Canada PR Visa.
