| IMMIGRATION TO CANADA |
A. Investors
For those who are unfamiliar with the Canadian investment environment, and perhaps hesitant to assume the risks associated with opening a new business in a foriegn country, there is an attractive option in the Canadian Immigrant Investor Program.
Canada's Investor Program is one of the most successfull in the world as it allows you to immigrate to Canada in exchange for a significant investment in the Canadian economy. The Investor program allows candidates to satisfy Immigration requirements by passively investing in an qualified investment project through an approved Canadian Investment Dealer.
To qualify, you must have a minimum net worth of $ 500,000 CDN acquired through your own endeavor and you must be prepared to invest between $250,000 and $350,000 CDN for a period of five years in an approved investment project, an amount that varies depending on your intended destination or province within Canada.
B. Self Employed
The Self-Employed category is intended for those persons who have the intent and ability to establish a business that will make a positive economic, artistic or cultural contribution to Canada. Unlike the Entrepreneur Category there is no requirement to create new jobs, however that said, the applicant must be able to demonstrate their business will create enough income to provide for the support of the applicant and his or her dependents.
Some examples of the type of applicants who could apply under this category are, Artists, Musicians, Sports personalities, Actors, Farmers, Consultants, and small business operators.
As the selection of applicants under this category is done in consultation with Canada's provincial and territorial governments, attention must be paid to the selection policies of the province where the applicant intends to establish his or her business.
Before you proceed with an application under this category, we strongly recommend that you seek out advice from one of our immigration professionals.
C. Entrepreneurs
Canadian Immigration regulations define an entrepreneur as an immigrant:
- who intends and has the ability to establish, purchase or make a substantial investment in a business or commercial venture in Canada
- whose business will make a significant contribution to the economy
- whose business will create or maintain employment opportunities in Canada for one or more Canadian citizens or permanent residents, other than the entrepreneur and his/her dependants, and
- who intends and has the ability to provide active and on-going participation in the management of the business or commercial venture.
If you can satisfy a visa officer that you meet this definition, you are eligible for immigration to Canada in the entrepreneur category.
Entrepreneurs
- do not have to meet a fixed net worth standard
- have direct and continuing control over the deployment of their investment money
- are admitted on a conditional basis, and must show, among other things, that they have set up and are actively involved in the management of a significant business venture within two years of their arrival, or face removal from Canada.
If you feel that you may meet the above requirements, we will be happy to review your qualifications and give you guidance on what to do next.
D. Skilled Workers
Canada each year selects over 200,000 new immigrants. Independant Selected Workers form a large protion of this overall number. Currently, Canada is seeking qualified applicants in over 3,000 open occupations.
For independent applicants applying under the skilled worker program, there are a series of factors that are assessed for the purposes of determining an individual's likelihood of succeeding in settling in Canada. Each factor is allotted a maximum number of points.
In order to qualify, you must attain 70 units, including those units obtained for personal suitability in the selection interview (where a maximum of 10 points are available). We have briefly listed below each of the factors considered by the Canadian Immigration Officer. The Selection Factors
- Age (Maximum 10 Units)
- Education (Maximum 16 Units)
- Language Skills (English/French, Maximum 15 Units)
- Experience (Maximum 8 units)
- Occupation (Maximum 10 units)
- Arranged Employment/Designated Occupations (Maximum 10 units)
- Education and Training Factor (ETF) (Maximum 18 units)
- Demographic Factor ( Maximum 10 units)
- Kinship Bonus (Maximum 5 units)
- Personal Suitability (Maximum 10 units)
In addition to the above, you must also possess at least one year of work experience directly in the occupation you intend to perform in Canada. You must also meet the educational and licensing reqiurements for the chosen occupation.
E. Students
Canada accepts international students at all educational levels from High school to University.
The following information should be viewed only as a general guide.
The Government of Canada requires students who are neither citizens nor landed immigrants, to obtain a Student Authorization (and in some cases a Visitors Visa) to study in Canada.
Applications must be made at a Canadian Embassy, High Commission or Consulate outside of Canada.
American citizens can apply for their Student Authorization at the point of entry into Canada.
In order to obtain a Student Authorization you must satisfy all the requirements of the Canadian Immigration Act and Regulations including your intention to remain in Canada only for the duration of your studies.
To obtain a Student Authorization all students must:
- Be unconditionally accepted by an approved educational institution into a full time accredited program (three or more courses per semester) of study.
- Have evidence of sufficient funds to cover your tuition fees, living expenses for yourself and accompanying dependents if applicable, and return transportation.
- Depending on your country of origin you may be required to complete a medical examination.
- Pay the Student Authorization application fee which at the time of printing is CDN$125.
- Have a valid passport
- Provide any additional information required by Canadian Immigration Authorities.
Keep in mind that Immigration procedures can take several months so we advise students begin the application process well in advance in order to meet deadlines. Happy World can assist you in both the school enrollment and Student Authorization phase. If you are interseted we invite you to fill in our online Application Form and one of our representives will contact you.
