What is Startup Visa and to whom it is applicable

A startup visa is good for people who want to establish a business or company in Canada and want to immigrate permanently to Canada. This is a new category introduced by the Canada Immigration Department and is the first of its kind. It can bring entrepreneurs who have experience and talent in various sectors and have the expertise to start up the business successfully. There are many reasons why Canada is chosen as the best place for building businesses for foreign workers and entrepreneurs.

Are you eligible to get a start-up visa to Canada?

Determining your eligibility before applying for a startup visa to Canada is important, and the following things will determine whether you are suitable for a start-up visa.

There are four main requirements for the Start-Up Visa:

• Getting the business idea funded: before you apply for the startup visa, you should meet the minimum financial requirements, and you should have the funds to start and make the business successful in Canada. You must convince the investor group that you have the necessary funds for your idea to take its form in Canada. If the investor thinks that you have proper funds, then he will give you a support letter, and you must include this letter in your application as proof of the funds.
• Language requirements: you need to have language proficiency to get approved for the startup visa and to start a company in Canada. You should be able to talk, speak, listen and write in English or French and sometimes both to get qualified for the visa. You should also meet the minimum levels in either English or French. You should also take a test to prove your language skills.
• Education requirements: to get qualified for the visa application, you should possess minimum educational requirements, and you should also provide proof of your education qualification.
• You should have sufficient funds with you. You should show proof that you have sufficient funds to start the business and make it successful in Canada. A properly fleshed-out business plan might be needed here.
