BUSINESS IMMIGRATION TO CANADA
Business Immigration Program was specifically developed for those individuals who have business acumen, entrepreneurial skills, successful experience and achievements in business, and who, as a result of their activity in Canada, will contribute to the Canadian economy. The Business Immigration Program currently falls under three categories of immigrants: Investors, Entrepreneurs and Self-employed.INVESTORS
Canada announced a new Immigrant Investor Program (IIP) which came into effect on April 1, 1999. There is an increase in the minimum investment to $ 400,000 CDN for all investors regardless of the province where the capital is invested. There is also an increase in the minimum net worth required of the investor to $800,000 CDN. The immigrant investment is now secured by the provinces and territories against loss. The full $400,000 CDN investment is returned after five years and three months.Quebec: The province of Quebec selects its own investors and administers its own immigrant investor program. Quebec has agreed to harmonize its regulations with the federal program: effective April 1, 1999 there is an increase in the minimum investment to $400,000 CDN and an increase in the minimum net worth required of the investor to $800,000 CDN for applicants in the Quebec investor program. Immigrant applicants investing in the Quebec investor program must intend to settle in Quebec. Immigrant applicants investing in the Quebec investor program must apply at a Quebec Immigration Office and obtain a Certificat de selection du Quebec (CSQ). At present those who wish to come to Canada as Entrepreneurs must demonstrate their intention and ability to establish, takeover or invest in a business which will make significant contribution to the economy of the country and will maintain employment for at least one Canadian citizen or permanent resident, excluding the entrepreneur and his family.
