fantastic opportunities to businessmen and businesswomen, investors, entrepreneurs, and self-
employed.

start-ups, provincial investments, and to name but a few. It is highly possible to choose one of these
ways for the ones who have certain amount of money for investing and their prior business activities.


Having established the business, the applicant will be able to apply for their Permanent Residence (PR) card. However, it is
important to mention that each of these business ways has its own criteria and prerequisites. These
investment ways are briefly explained in the following paragraphs:

As the term itself signifies, the applicant must have some certain conditions and eligibilities for being
accepted as a start-up investor.

​

  1. The first and foremost principle is the fact that the applicant has a starting their business in Canada. successful and lucrative business and they have creative and consistent business plan while living.

  2. Secondly, their business must create jobs for Canadians, and being investors. their business internationally active and well-known is a great asset for them to be accepted as start-up.

​

One of the advantages of this type of visa is obtaining PR for both the investor and their family. There
are some other criteria which must be met for being granted this type of visa:

​

  1. Language proficiency test result of 5 in English or French

  2. Having received the support letter of their business from one of the Canadian ‘Incubators’, ‘Angel Investors’, or ‘Venture Capitals’

  3. Having the amount between $13000 to $35000 depending on the number of the family members.

Investors are able to register their businesses in Canada through the following ways:

​

  • Sole Proprietorship
