FAQ

Business & Investor Immigration — questions & answers

What is the Start-Up Visa program?

The Start-Up Visa grants permanent residence to entrepreneurs with a qualifying business idea supported by a designated Canadian investor or incubator. It requires a genuine, innovative business, language ability, and settlement funds. Structuring the application and the supporting relationship correctly is essential.

How can I immigrate to Canada as an investor or entrepreneur?

Options include the federal Start-Up Visa and various provincial entrepreneur and investor streams, each with its own investment, net-worth, and business requirements. Success turns on a credible business plan and clean source-of-funds documentation. A lawyer matches you to the stream you best fit and prepares the file to survive due diligence.

How much do I need to invest to immigrate to Canada?

There is no single figure — requirements vary widely by program and province, from provincial entrepreneur streams to the Start-Up Visa (which has no fixed investment amount but requires designated support). The right question is which program fits your capital, experience and goals, which a lawyer can assess.

Do I need a business plan to immigrate as an entrepreneur?

Yes. Business and entrepreneur streams require a credible business plan that meets the program’s criteria, along with defensible source-of-funds documentation. These are among the most scrutinized applications, so professional structuring makes a real difference.
