The Maple Leaf Country is a nation of migrants, and historically, it has a rich culture. From time to time, the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) tries to draw migrants–especially those who have the ability to work as active partners to help the economy grow and who can create new employment opportunities for its citizens.

One such programme that was introduced by the CIC is the Investor Programme to Canada. Since the time it was first launched, it has been in demand. The programme is especially famous among those who are looking for a quick opportunity to acquire Canadian Permanent Residency.

The programme was first introduced to encourage business professionals to come and invest in the nation. Foreign investment will definitely boost the Canadian economy and create more opportunities for the nationals. The programme is arguably the most favored bet for those business professionals who have a desire to start their own business venture in North America. Successful applicants may live and work anywhere in Canada, except Quebec, for an indefinite period.

Investor programme provides you an easy migration route to Canada. Those who are inclined to move to Canada should be ready to make an investment of CAD$800,000, for a fixed tenure of five years. Ottawa assures that once the tenure ends your invested money will be reimbursed without any interests.

Investor Programme–Major Benefits

• It allows indefinite stay; Permanent Residency is issued soon after investment is made.
• You may later acquire citizenship and Canadian Passport.
• You are free to live and work anywhere, except Quebec, in the nation.
• You may come to the country along with your family members.
• Your family members are entitled to enjoy the same rights as you.
• You may avail subsidized world class medical care for yourself and your family members.
• You may start your own business venture that may be later transferred to your children.
• You may easily take the help of the Canadian financial banking system to expand your business at the international level.

Programme–Major Highlights

• You must have a clear intention to live and work in Canada indefinitely.
• You must have legally earned at-least CAD $1.6 million–either individually or along with your accompanying spouse or common law partner.
• You must have at least two years experience of managing a business venture.
• You must be ready to make an investment of CAD $800,000 for five years–that too at 0% interest rate.
• You must be ready to appear for medical test and other miscellaneous inquires.

If you do not wish to make an investment of CAD$800,000 you have a choice of making a onetime payment of financing fee to any government authorized financial institution. This fee is non- refundable.

The CIC encourages business professionals from round the world to come and invest in the nation. The invested amount is further distributed among various provinces and territories and used to boost their respective economies and create job opportunities for local people.
