What are my PR options others than MPNP?

Hello,

A little background on myself. I have completed Masters from a university in Manitoba and currently working in my own field of study. The easiest pathway for me would obviously be MPNP but I plan to relocate to other provinces (BC, Ontario or Alberta) in few years. I am in my late 20s. What might be the best pathway for me?

Furthermore I am quite confused about EE and PNP. I read that if we are selected for PNP, we'd get additional 600 points in our EE profile. If so then can I directly apply for EE and not move forward with my MPNP application. I am confused how this works.

If you go through an EE PNP program and accept the 600 points, then you are still going through a PNP program even though your application is processed through Express Entry and need to show intent to reside in that province. So if you're leaving Manitoba, you don't want to be claiming 600 points for EE through MPNP.

Options are the PNP program of the province you're moving to - or applying for EE directly if you have sufficient points to be selected.

Most students apply through CEC or PNP.
