The provincial Government of Manitoba announced that the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) has been grappling with technical difficulties since December 1, 2024, affecting its ability to send acknowledgment emails to applicants. While the program continues accepting applications and Expressions of Interest (EOIs), technical issues have forced the postponement of the EOI draw scheduled for December 2. MPNP officials have confirmed that their technical team is actively working to resolve the problem, with EOI draws expected to resume during the week of December 9, 2024.
