Canadian Immigration: Investors and Self-Employed Entrepreneur Business Programs
The federal and provincial governments of Canada offer many options to Foreign Nationals looking to continue or start a business in Canada.
There are various requirements under the federal law and the provincial law regarding the eligibility of an applicant under the various Canada business programs, such as a required amount of capital investment in the business, past experience in the applicant’s field of business, and sometimes, a business plan.
Canada Business Immigration Programs
Canada offers two programs to international business people; the Business Investor Program and the Self-Employed Program. An applicant’s chances of successfully applying under one of these programs will hinge upon their ability to contribute to the Canadian economy.
Canada also provides an opportunity for international business people who have an idea and would like to start a business in Canada. This is a new program that has just recently opened, and the program will only be available for a test-run of five years. To take advantage of this program, potential candidates must be aware of the program’s expiration date, and apply as soon as possible!
