Business investors with business experience and capital to invest have several pathways to choose from in order to immigrate to Canada with the Owner-Operator Program being the most sought after path for potential self-employed business investors who do not yet meet the narrow requirements for self-employed applicants or do not have the support of a designated organization in order to qualify for an entrepreneur start-up visa program.
To qualify as an owner-operator, the foreign investor must have:
- Work/Business/Management experience
- Sufficient assets to purchase a business in Canada
- More than 50% ownership shares in the business
What is the process?
The foreign investor identifies a Canadian business to purchase then a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is submitted along with a suitable business plan. Once a positive LMIA opinion is issued, the foreign investor applies for at least a year of renewable temporary work permit at the management level. We will identify suitable businesses for sale in Canada and provide legal assistance in identifying, purchasing business and completing the required immigration formalities.
