    Is there any age requirement when applying in Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program General Stream?

    I am 51 years old now and I have the necessary trade skills that are transferable to either of the provinces in Canada but I worry about my age.

    Prompt response is greatly appreciated.

    Sincerely,

    Nolly Tapel

      Hi Nolly. Age is a factor on the points based system. For Manitoba PNP. the maximum points are awarded for those aged 21-44. For your age it will not garner any points. However, if the other criteria suffice, then your deficiency on this factor can be covered. So make sure to check the other criterias.
