Immigration to Saskatchewan for entrepreneurs

Candidates wishing to do business in the province can immigrate through the Entrepreneur stream.

The Entrepreneur stream of Saskatchewan’s provincial program is designed for candidates who wish to start, purchase or partner in a business in the province.

Eligibility

You must meet the following requirements to be able to apply for the Entrepreneur stream:

  • have 3 years of experience managing or owning a business within the last 10 years;
  • hold a net worth of $500,000 CAD;
  • be able to invest in the business:
    • CA$ 300,000 if the business is located in Regina or Saskatoon census metropolitan areas;
    • CA$ 200,000 if the business is located in other cities in the province;
  • own one-third of the established or purchased business in the province, the requirement is waived if the total investment in the business exceeds CA$ 1 million;
  • create a minimum of two jobs within the new business or maintain an established workforce if the business is purchased;
  • make an exploratory visit to Saskatchewan for a minimum of 5 calendar days;
  • make a business plan;
  • reside within 50 kilometres of the established or purchased business location in Saskatchewan;
  • demonstrate knowledge of English or French at least at CLB level 5 (intermediate level).

How to apply

Immigration through business programs occurs in several stages. After submitting an application, the candidate receives a work permit, which allows them to come to Canada and begin operating their business. After that, you can obtain a permanent residence permit. The Saskatchewan Entrepreneur stream allows you to apply for a permanent residence after 12 months of doing business.

We deal with business immigration on a turnkey basis and will help you at all stages. If you are interested in immigrating to Saskatchewan under the Entrepreneur stream, book a consultation with one of our experts.
