Those who are able to secure a nomination from their province will subsequently have a greater advantage when applying for permanent residence with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

Quebec does not need a PNP since province has a separate arrangement with the federal government that provides it control over the selection of all economic immigrants rather than getting an allotment. Candidates in Quebec are invited to apply for a certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ) in lieu of being nominated.

This Thursday, Quebec released the results of a draw that took place on May 30. Usually, Quebec posts results after the fact.

The province invited 1441 people to apply for permanent selection if they:

• had a level 7 oral proficiency (or higher) in French according to the Échelle québécoise des niveaux de compétence en français. (Québec scale of French proficiency levels for adult immigrants) or its equivalent;
• had a score equal to or greater than 591 points.

Candidates were also considered if they had a valid job offer outside of the territory of the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal.

Manitoba

254 letters of advice were sent out by Manitoba on June 6th to applicants for the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP). Candidates who declared a valid Express Entry profile number and job seeker validation code were awarded 35 of them.

Three distinct types of candidates received letters in a draw format.

With an 834 score, the province wrote to 134 skilled workers in Manitoba. For the 74 applicants in the International Education Stream (no minimum score), everything worked in the same way.

Ultimately, a Strategic Recruitment Initiative resulted in the issuance of 45 letters to applicants in the Skilled Workers Overseas Stream. A minimum score of 708 was necessary for these applicants.
