*To be eligible to apply to the start-up visa, applicants must have already created their business and secured commitment from a designated Canadian business Investment organization or incubator, approved by Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). We have a strong working relationship with these organizations and can provide expert advise on how to obtain a letter of support from an Incubator or Investor.
You must score a minimum of Canadian Language Benchmark level 5 in speaking, reading, listening, and writing in either English or French.
Because the Canadian government doesn’t give financial support to this “investor” visa, you will have to be able to prove that you have enough money to settle yourself and your family in Canada.
