The Canadian province of Manitoba has provided
some details regarding expressions of interest
and applications made under its Business Investor
Stream, a category of the Manitoba Provincial
Nominee Program (MPNP). The program was first
launched in February, 2015. This stream operates
on an Expression of Interest (EOI) system whereby
prospective applicants submit their intention to
apply to the program. The most qualified are
invited to apply by receiving a Letter of Advice
to Apply (LAA) from the MPNP. As of January 4,
2016, 340 LAAs (approximately 10 LAAs per week)
have been issued to the candidates with scores
ranging from 98 to some EOIs with a score of 80.
The MPNP has received 212 Nomination Applications
from applicants who were issued a LAA. After
receiving a LAA, candidates have 60 days to
submit their application to the program.
