How to Apply for Manitoba Human Capital Pathway?
You can acquire a Canadian permanent residence in a few steps through the Human Capital Pathway.
Step 1: Eligibility Assessment First and foremost is the assessment of your eligibility. You must score at least 60 points (out of 100).

Step 3: Credential Assessment Once you have done with the EOI, you will now be assigned a score out of 1000 based on your credentials under the provincial unique ranking system for skilled workers.
