BUSINESS IMMIGRATION
Canada Business Immigration
Business immigration programs are designed to invest in Canadian businesses that will contribute to the economic growth and also creating new employment opportunities for Canadians both at Federal and Provincial levels. Canada has become one of the world’s most preferred destination for business and investment for business people and investors from around the world. Business immigration programs facilitate business people and investors along with their family to become a permanent resident of Canada.
Below are some of the many business/investor immigration programs at Federal and Provincial levels:
Provincial Entrepreneur programs
Each province manages its own entrepreneur programs and generally follow a multi-step process to permanent residence. Applicants submit an expression of interest and wait for an invitation to submit an application. Selected candidates submit a complete application which is assessed by the province’s immigration authorities. If approved, candidates are generally required to sign a Performance Agreement and apply for a work permit and enter Canada as a worker at first. If the Performance Agreement requirements are met at the end of a designated period, candidates receive the provincial nomination. Based on that selection or nomination, they may apply to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) for permanent residence.
Self-employed program
The Self-employed Persons Program allows people to immigrate to Canada permanently as a self-employed person.
If you’re interested in this program, you must:
- have relevant experience in cultural activities or athletics and
- be willing and able to make a significant contribution to the cultural or athletic life of Canada
