Investment Immigration

Investment Immigration

The Immigrant Investor Program was created by the Government of Canada to promote the immigration of business people to Canada. There are two routes to immigrate to Canada by way of investment: the Quebec Immigrant Investor Program and the Provincial Nominee Programs for Entrepreneurs.

The Quebec Immigrant Investor Program is specifically designed for experienced management professionals who desire to immigrate to Canada and settle in Quebec. The Provincial Nominee Program for Entrepreneurs was created to permit the other provinces of Canada to actively manage immigrant selection in accordance with provincial plans and priorities.

Each province and territory has their own PNP so it can be overwhelming. Let us help you plan an effective strategy.

Provincial Nominee Programs

Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP)

Each province and territories have their own unique Provincial Nominee Programs. Provincial and territorial governments offer these programs to more effectively and efficiently attact investors to their region.

Each PNP is uniquely tailored to their specific needs to select nominees who will be able to settle into life and work in the region, and best to contribute to the local community. Most PNPs contain at least one immigration stream aligned with the federal Express Entry immigration selection process.

The province will consider your experience, resources and application based on their immigration needs, as well as your genuine intention to settle there. Before applying to immigrate to Canada, provincial nominees must complete the provincial nomination process.

Once an applicant is nominated, he or she will be given a nomination certificate that is to be submitted with their application to the federal government for their Canadian permanent residence.

Quebec Immigrant Investor Program

Quebec’s Immigrant Investor Program is open to qualified investors who intend to live in Quebec and make a passive investment of CA$1,200,000 via an authorized financial institution in the their province. The applicant must have net assets of at least CA$2,000,000 obtained legally.

Investors must have experience with management in a legal farming, commercial or industrial business, or in a legal professional business where the staff occupies at least the equivalent of two full-time jobs, or for an international agency or a government or one of its departments or agencies.
