BUSINESS CLASS IMMIGRATION
Business
immigrants are people who can invest in, or start businesses
in Canada and are expected to support the development
of a strong and prosperous Canadian economy.
The Business Immigration Programs seek to attract people
experienced in business to Canada.
Business immigrants are selected based on their ability
to become economically established in Canada.
There are three classes of business immigrants:
Investors:

experienced business persons who could invest capital
in Canada. Investors must demonstrate business experience
and must have a minimum net worth of CDN $800,000
and are able to make an investment of CDN $400,000.
The investment in this program is held for five
year with no interest. |

persons that will own and actively manage businesses
in Canada and will contribute to the economy. Also,
to provide employment opportunities of at least
one full-time employee in the business. Entrepreneurs

QUEBEC
SELECTION
Quebec
is responsible for selecting immigrants who wish to
settle in Quebec. The Quebec government and the Government
of Canada have an agreement that allows Quebec to select
immigrants who best meet its immigration needs. Under
the Canada-Quebec Accord on Immigration, Quebec is able
to establish its own immigration requirements and select
immigrants who will adapt well to living in Quebec.
As Quebec is a French speaking province, the use of
the French language would be considered an asset.
