IF you get an answer to that letter, they will probably tell you to go ahead with FSW and forget about MPNP. There is lot of others interested, so really...

Really, this does not bother MPNP......



I guess iforti needs to realise that there are plenty fishes in the sea, and who the captain of the boat is!;);):lol:

iforti, patience is the name of the game, if you have other options then do go ahead and take them.........

Hello ladies and gents,

I'm waiting with bated breath for my IELTS results, so that I can submit them and be on my way to getting my EV. So in the interim I'm trying to get everything that I can prepared, and scrolling through previous posts on this thread when I see Manitobains' post and I start to fret. and here I meant to help ;)

I'm worrying about:

1. TRV: connections in MB. Do ask your MPNP officer directly if it is ok, if you name him/her as contact (Marcus/Sarah do seem to do the majority at the moment, I know Sarah has agreed in one case...but better to ask them). They can't legally write you a support letter, but they suggest to add to your application your email conversation with them and as I said, probably they are ok with giving their name/email address and phone number as contact. relationship I would put in my case officer at MPNP or similiar.

My problem: At the end of the e-mails there is no name, I see the three letters that I suppose are initials, but how do I request something from someone if I have no clue who they are?.. :( cause you are over-eager ;). The next reply from MPNP -if positive- should reveal the officer you will be dealing with ..as they will arrange the interview date directly with you.

2.For online PNP application you only need to have proof of 5 years experience/references from employers for both if a couple....yet for the PR application the MAIN applicant needs 10 years proof (I find that very confusing)...so again, while you are at it, get all you need together. this was taken bit out of context. For a short period of time you had also to get education/experience proof when applying for PR as a PNP. They changed that around again, so now only proof off educ/exp at the PNP level

I just...exactly 2 years ago began working full time, I've been in school and doing summer jobs up to that point. PNP is irritating me with constantly changing their web info...grrr. I can't find the guide anymore, where it was better explained. I can only find the info that you need a minimum of 1 year education and 2 years experience.. so if they ask only for that, then they really shouldn't ask for more in the application. Let me check on that tomorrow...maybe I get lucky and get an answer

3. I don't know anyone in Canada, I have a friend there she isn't a permanent resident. I have to have an invitation letter to get a TRV, and from my research the MPNP does not provide those letters. What do I do?ahhh...here is where the part : make connections ..comes in. Connect with communities you are interested in visiting..either through EDO or if they have Settlement Officers or simply municipal administration, ask all those questions about living, employment etc...and if all good, ask them for an invitation letter. Give them the website where it is describe how such a letter has to look like..as it needs to be pretty specific, explain that they don't financially commit to anything..other than you coming out to visit them and potentially settling there and you just might be good :)
