PR in Canada for money. The only immigration program through investment
We've been waiting for it for 4 years! Canada opens a program that allows you to get a residence permit for money.
Usually, in order to move, candidates need to meet various requirements in terms of age, work experience, English proficiency, education, and so on. Many people don't score enough points to get an invitation, and to improve them, they have to find an employer who will agree to hire them, or enter a Canadian college and study for 1-2 years. Even after that, the points may not be enough.
But there is another way to immigrate to Canada — through investment. I'm talking about Quebec's Immigrant Investor Program. This program was closed in 2019, but now the government has announced the program reopening in January 2024 with new requirements.
If you don't know the language well, you are already over 30, you don't have a master's degree, but have accumulated capital, you can quickly move to Canada, get a residence permit, and subsequently a Canadian passport.
Why Quebec?
There are two reasons for this. Firstly, so far this is the only program in Canada that allows you to get a residence permit for monetary investment. All other business immigration programs require either starting a business from scratch, buying a ready-made one, or having some innovative business idea that will be supported by Canadian investment companies. The Quebec program will allow you to simply invest money and get a residence permit based on passive investments.
Secondly, it is the most popular investor immigration program in Canada. Every year, it grants 1,000 or more permanent residence permits, and often more. For example, in 2022, 4,000 investors received PRs, and from 2015 to 2022, more than 28,000 people did it. For business immigration, you understand, this is a lot. Don't be surprised that the program is closed, but PRs were being issued, the Quebec government was most likely issuing PRs on old applications that were submitted before the closure.
