MPNP-UKRAINE Program is ENDING

This is an urgent update to the MPNP program. The Government of Manitoba has announced the program to help Ukrainians in Manitoba is ending on 30 APR 2024. We have helped dozens (hundreds?) of Ukrainians through the program and they are on track to PERMANENT RESIDENT status.

If you are reading this and you know someone who may qualify for this program, they must act quickly. The window is closing very soon.

The following special measures will end on April 30, 2024:

1. Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) Ukraine Special Measures Expression of Interest (EOI) draws

   • Ukrainian nationals who meet MPNP eligibility criteria will continue to be able to submit their EOI applications and be eligible for regular EOI draws.

2. MPNP application fee refunds

   • Those with Letters of Advice to Apply (LAA) issued prior to May 1, 2024, will still be eligible to receive the application fee refund after the complete MPNP application is submitted.

3. Immigration information appointments at the Reception Centre

After 30 APR 2024, it will be much more difficult for Ukrainians in Manitoba to qualify under the other PR streams.
