About Spain

Spain is in the south-western part of Europe, with a population of approximately 47 million. Its capital is Madrid, and the official language spoken is Spanish. Spanish is spoken by over 430 million worldwide. Spain uses the euro as its currency.

Spain is a member of the European Union and one of Europe’s largest economies. Spain has experienced remarkable economic growth in the last few decades to become the fourth-largest of the Eurozone. The Spanish economy has transformed into a service-based economy with strong tourism, renewable energy and banking industries.

Spain is one of the most desirable destinations in Europe due to its warm weather, vibrant lifestyle, beautiful architecture and exceptional cuisine. Spain has grown in the last decade to become the second-most touristic country in the world.

Benefits of the Spain Residence by Investment programme

The Spain Residence by Investment programme provides a temporary residence permit to investors in Spain. Investors first receive a 1-year visa in order to complete the investment if they are outside of Spain. The investor then receives a 2-year permit that will be renewed for a 5-year resident permit. After 5 years of holding a resident permit in Spain, applicants can be eligible for permanent residence. Citizenship is possible after 10 years of living in Spain.

Applicants are allowed to include their relatives in the application, such as spouses, children who are minors or those of legal age who are financially dependent on the holder, and parents in their charge.

Spain taxation can be advantageous for foreigners earning income in Spain, with the impatriate tax regime (aka the Beckham Amendment) capping the tax rate at 24%.

Commitment expectations

To apply for temporary residence through the Spain Residence by Investment programme, one of the following commitment is required:

Purchase of real estate property of EUR 500,000 or more; or

Invest in listed or unlisted shares for the amount of EUR 1 million; or

Make a bank deposit for the amount of EUR 1 million; or

Invest EUR 1 million in an investment fund of the closed-end type or venture capital funds set up in Spain; or

Invest in Spanish public debt securities for the amount of EUR 2 million;

The investment must be held for the length of residence or until change of status (e.g. permanent residence).

Further to this, the amount of government-related administrative fees is approximately EUR 70.10 per person. A further EUR 76.36 needs to be paid per person for the renewal.

This means that the total capital outlay for a single applicant would amount to approximately EUR 500,071.10. This indicative amount excludes service providers’ professional fees and any other fees not stated herein.

The Application Process

The application process typically starts with the signing of a client agreement and a power of attorney with a service provider. This facilitates the process for the applicant, as the service provider undertakes the liaison with the different stakeholders. The process then continues with the preparation of the application and the supporting documentation. As applicants might be required to enter the country at some stage of the process, It is important to check if an ordinary entry visa will be required.

Once all the documents have been prepared, a petition to the investor programme is made at a Spanish consulate or embassy office. Once the petition has been received, the Spanish authorities take 10 working days to process the visa application. Once approved, a 1-year visa is issued in order to complete your investment option.

Once the investment has been completed, the relevant documents are sent to the Large Business and Strategic Groups Unit (UGE-CE) to issue the residence permit, which takes approximately 20 days.

Once everything is approved, the applicant and his family receive their resident permits. Permits are valid for 2 years and can be renewed by maintaining the investment.

About Greece

Greece, officially called the Hellenic Republic, is in the Southern and South-eastern part of Europe with a population of approximately 11 million. Its capital is Athens, and the official language spoken is Greek although English is spoken by many of the locals. Greece adopted the euro as its official currency in 2001, meaning that it was one of the first countries to make use of the euro banknotes and coins.

Greece, a full EU Member State, scores high on all major factors taken into consideration when choosing a new country for relocating, such as quality of life, regulated environment, secure living conditions in urban and rural areas, access to efficient services, residence privileges for family members, freedom to travel, among others. The country presents unique investment opportunities through business development models that promote its competitive advantages and investment potential in various sectors of production. Sectors such as ICT, energy, life sciences, export-oriented manufacturing and logistics are sectors which receive favourable consideration in terms of investment opportunities.

With a new vision for development, Greece aims to attract foreign direct investments in infrastructure, manufacturing, energy, tourism, agriculture and other sectors through flexible and fast administrative procedures, and by promoting its natural resources, well-educated human capital and other unique comparative advantages in the broader South-eastern European region.

Benefits of the Greece Permanent Residence Permit for Investors Programme

The Greece Permanent Residence Permit for Investors Programme (GPRP) was launched in 2013 to attract foreign direct investments to Greece and is the lowest entry point for residency in Europe via a real estate purchase. It is also the only European programme offering permanent residency from day one. The Immigration and Social Integration code, 2014 introduced provisions to facilitate the stay of non-EU nationals, who are granted a five-year residency visa, in return for a real estate investment of EUR 250,000. This visa can be acquired under 90 days and is renewable every five years, if the property investment is retained.

The GPRP also offers an investment route. The investment activity may be implemented through the construction of new facilities (greenfield investments) or business acquisitions, restructuring as well as expansion of current activities (brownfield investments), provided that it has a positive impact on the national economy. Residence permits offered to investors and executives can be renewed every five years, as long as they maintain their position in relation to the investment and the investment continues to be active. Furthermore, up to 10 residence permits may be made available for investors and executives, depending on the scale of the investment.

In Greece, a new economy is in the making. In parallel, investment opportunities are abundant and attractive, in a wide variety of sectors. Greece’s massive reform efforts are opening new investment frontiers that reward both first movers and established players. The next decade is set to see sustained growth in tourism, ICT, energy, environmental sciences, food, beverage and agriculture, logistics, and life sciences. An outward-looking economy that is focused on long-term growth means that investors can look forward to highly favourable returns. As a member of the European Union and the Eurozone, Greece continues to be the economic hub of Southeast Europe, an ideal gateway to the Middle East, Western Europe, and North Africa, and an emerging logistics hub for the entire region.

Commitment expectations

To apply for permanent residence through the GPRP, one of the following commitments is required:

Own real estate property in Greece, either personally or through a 100% owned, legal entity based in Greece or another EU member state. This may also include a plot of land or acreage together with the construction of a building. The total minimum value of the investment must be of EUR 250,000; or

A lease agreement for a minimum of 10 years, for hotel accommodations or furnished tourist residences in integrated tourist resorts, including timeshare agreements as per Law 1652/1986 provided the minimum cost of the lease is EUR 250,000; or

A minimum investment of EUR 250,000 in Greece, either personally or through a 100% owned, legal entity based in Greece or another EU member state. Investment activity may include the construction of new facilities (greenfield investments) or business acquisitions, restructuring or expansion of current activities (brownfield investments). Investment projects must have a positive impact on national development and the economy through factors such as job creation, promotion of domestic resources and vertical integration of domestic production, export orientation, innovation and adoption of new technology;

Further to this, the amount of government-related administrative fees is approximately EUR 2,516 for a single main applicant, and an additional EUR 150 for every adult dependent. Minor dependents are exempt from such fees.

Furthermore, if the real estate route is chosen, one may expect additional fees amounting to approximately 8% of the property’s value to cover typical expenses such as notary fees, new ownership registration, residency permit vouchers, insurance, stamp duty, translations, legal fees for the property transfer and residency permit, and legal checks of the property. An additional 3% Property Transfer Tax or 24% VAT, should also be expected based on various parameters.

This means that the total capital outlay for a single applicant through the real estate route, is approximately EUR 280,166 including the investment, government fees, typical expenses for the acquisition of the real estate and Property Transfer Tax. This indicative amount excludes service providers’ professional fees and any other statutory taxes.

The Application Process

The application process typically commences with the signing of a power of attorney with a service provider to facilitate the liaison with the different stakeholders. This is followed by a visit to the Greek Consulate in your place of residence to apply for a visa to enter Greece (visa type C, or type D where appropriate).

Once you enter Greece, you can apply immediately for a residence permit, after all the procedures for the property purchase have been finalized. In any case, you must apply for a residence permit while your visa is valid. Once the application is submitted, the Greek authorities issue a receipt of application, which may be used as a temporary permit prior to residency being granted.

An appointment at the Decentralized Authority will be required, for the purpose of biometric data collection. Approximately, 2 months from submission the authorities are usually able to issue the residence permit.

About Malta

Malta is a southern-European island country, with a population of circa 475,000. Its capital is Valletta, and the official languages spoken are Maltese and English, whilst Italian is also widely spoken. Malta adopted the euro as its official currency in 2008.

As one of the strongest, fastest growing economies of the European Union and the Eurozone, Malta repeatedly positions as one of the top relocation destinations in the world, given its employment, business and lifestyle opportunities. Malta’s economy is broadly diversified, from microchip production to financial services, from highly specialised currency printing to digital gaming, from tourism to blockchain or ‘Virtual Financial Assets’ related enterprises, with Malta being the first country in the world to regulate this sector.

Benefits of the Malta Residence Visa Programme

The Malta Residence Visa Programme (MRVP) grants the right to reside in Malta indefinitely, together with the ability to travel freely within the 26 member-states of the Schengen area.

The Maltese Government has created a business-friendly environment that is thriving and contributing to making the economy one of Europe’s fastest growing. Malta is a forward-looking destination, with an open business-centric commercial community that stands tall as an EU member state, and a proven record of economic success.

Whilst the Malta Residence Visa Programme does not qualify its applicants for any preferential tax schemes, the transparent, fully onshore, yet remarkably competitive tax system is undoubtedly an important factor in attracting investors to Malta. A system which is backed up by over 60 Double Taxation agreements yet allows for rates as low as 5%, indeed adds a great deal of value to any Malta-based operation. This is strengthened by the presence of a highly professional financial services sector and a strong regulator which ensures the provision of high-quality advice in matters pertaining to international tax systems.

Private and public service providers are aware of the requirements of an incoming operation. The process of setting up on the island is a straightforward and transparent one in which the investor is always kept updated as to what is required. Prospective investors often make use of service providers from the private sector capable of seeing to all their legal and logistical requirements from company registration, access to banking facilities to recruitment of staff. With a pleasant, temperate climate, excellent investment opportunities and framework, high quality healthcare and education, and as one of the safest countries worldwide, makes Malta an interesting and strategically located business-hub in the region.

Invest a minimum of EUR 250,000 in government bonds, which must be retained for a minimum of 5 years;

CANADA Owner/Operator LMIA Based Work Permit

There is a way to get a Canadian work permit if you are an owner of your own business. You may apply for advertising-exempt Labour Market Impact Assessment, which, if approved, will give you grounds for a work permit.

This type of work/permit is often referred to as the Owner/Operator work permit. Let’s take a closer look at how it works.

Any Canadian employer who wishes to employ a temporary foreign worker must first go through the Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) process. Through this process, an employer obtains an authorization from the Government to bring a foreign worker to Canada.

The purpose of LMIA is to make sure that before hiring a temporary foreign worker every effort was made to hire a Canadian citizen or a Canadian permanent resident.

One of the most important requirements of the LMIA process is advertising. The position has to be advertised in various online resources to provide proof that the recruiting effort took place, was extensive and covered many potential applicants from Canada.

OWNER/OPERATOR LMIA OVERVIEW

However, some LMIA applications are exempt from advertising requirements, one such example being the Owner/Operator LMIA.

This specific category has been created for foreign businessmen who wish to either establish or purchase a business in Canada and manage it from Canada. The role of the simplified procedure is to attract business people to the country and make the transition process smooth, easy and quick.

If business owner had to go through the same laborious process of obtaining a work permit, they most likely would be dissuaded from investing so much effort into that and will look into other country for investment opportunities. This stream has been specifically designed to avoid that.So, if you are a business person who runs a business or wants to purchase a business in Canada, look into the below criteria to see if you qualify. You must:

Be a sole or majority shareholder, i.e. demonstrate that you have controlling interest in the business;

Demonstrate that your entry into Canada will result in the creation or retention of jobs for Canadian permanent residents / citizens;

Be independent from any senior management. You must occupy the highest position of power in the company and not be answerable to any superiors.

The key requirement for Owner/Operator LMIA is for an applicant to own a controlling interest of 50% or more in the company.

OWNER/OPERATOR LMIA REQUIREMENTS

Other requirements include:

A business plan. You must show in detail how you will fund the business and create/maintain employment. The business plan must be elaborate and convincing. You must convince the officer of Employment and Social Development Canada that you know what you are doing;

You must be actively involved in the business. You should show that you are not making a passive investment. Instead, you intend to run and develop your business further. You are the architect and the muse behind your project.

In your business plan, show an intention to hire Canadian citizens or permanent residents (ideally, in the first year of the business).

WHAT’S NEXT?

Once you receive a positive Owner/Operator LMIA, you can apply to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada for a work permit. The work permit is valid for the same period of validity of LMIA. Usually, it is two years.

After you get the work permit, in most cases you will be able to apply for Canadian permanent residence through the Express Entry system. You will get additional points for a job offer that your own company makes to you, the applicant.

With an LMIA-based Owner/Operator work permit, you have good chances of immigrating to Canada under the Federal Skilled Worker Program.

WE CAN HELP

We have vast experience with Owner/Operator LMIA and work permit, and we will happily look into you case.

MANITOBA — AT A GLANCE

The beautiful Canadian Province of Manitoba, located in central part of the country, is one of the three Prairie Provinces in the nation, and home to over 1,200,000 people. The largest city in the province is the capital, Winnipeg, with a population exceeding 730,000. The second largest city is Brandon, with a population of around 56,000. Manitoba has received increasing numbers of immigrants in recent years, and it has set goals of encouraging 10,000 immigrants to settle within its borders annually.

Manitoba Economy & Employment

Mining, manufacturing, agriculture these are one of the principle industries of the province even as traditionally, farming has been a major occupation for Manitobans. The rich farmlands in the Southern Manitoba produce wheat, barley, oats, sunflower, flax and canola crops, as well as dairy and livestock farms. From this agricultural base, a considerable food processing industry has emerged. Apart from this, Manitoba is home to considerable manufacturing, aerospace and transportation industries.

Winnipeg, the capital, has a sizable financial and insurance industry, as well as government administration and services. The unemployment rate in the province is presently 5.4% well below the Canadian average of 7.0%. The economy is expected to continue its recent growth. While this should provide robust job creation, the Government of Manitoba also provides different programmes to help immigrants settle and find jobs in the province. Among these are free English as an Additional Language (EAL) classes, job preparation programmes, etc.

Manitoba Standard of Living

Low cost of living is one of the most appealing aspects of the province and this enables one to enjoy a very comfortable life here. Housing, energy, insurance and post-secondary education in Manitoba are all among the least expensive in the country. With a lower share of income dedicated to these costs, the Manitobans have more money left over to spend on other things. One such example is a cottage/vacation home, as Manitobans have the highest rate of vacation home ownership in Canada.

The Manitobans are hooked on to Golf and play it a lot. Such a high craze for this sport cannot be found anywhere else in the nation. Manitoba has a mandatory minimum wage in Canada at 10.70 Canadian Dollars. The province also has the fourth-lowest marginal personal income tax rate in the country. Not to be underestimated, the friendly nature of the local people also contributes to the quality of life in the province.

A very special thing about the residents is that they are very generous and volunteer at a higher rate than any other Canadian province. They also give the highest proportion of their incomes to charity. This generosity helps to create supportive communities that can help new Canadians get off to a good start in the province.

Manitoba Residential Housing

Housing is not very expensive here and it’s a key draw factor about residing in the region. The province’s residential housing market is very competitive, and affordable housing is readily available. The average house price in Manitoba is 269,000 Canadian Dollars the fourth lowest average of any province in the country. The average percentage of household income taken up by ownership costs varies between 15–30%. Another benefit of the housing market is that without too much urban sprawl, one does not have to go too far outside the cities to find a good place to live. Winnipeg has the shortest average distance to commute to work of any Canadian city over 500,000 people, with an average under just six kilometres. Shorter commute means more time available to spend at home with family or taking part in other activities.

MANITOBA PROVINCIAL NOMINEE PROGRAMME

Much like other Canadian provinces and territories, Manitoba, too, has its own provincial nominee programme, called the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Programme (MPNP). It is basically an excellent administration managed immigration scheme that chooses those candidates for migration who manage to establish that they have both the capability and the desire to move and settle themselves, along with their families, in the province.

MPNP NOW REORGANIZED & IMPROVED

The province has recently made numerous important changes to its PNP. The formation of an in-demand occupations list, and a new corridor allied with the nation’s Express Entry system are just two of the main improvements made to the MPNP.

A component of an extensive rearrangement and restoration of the MPNP, the steps are in keeping with the province’s declared commitment to provide the new entrants with new and better trails to the prized Permanent Residence (PR) status in the province and the nation.

The improvements comprise the restructuring of three present and running immigration categories, namely, the MPNP-B Business Immigration Stream, Skilled Worker in Manitoba Stream, and Skilled Worker Overseas Stream and the making of a completely new International Education Stream.

A. BUSINESS INVESTOR STREAM (BIS)

Let’s start with the Business Investor Stream (BIS) first!

The improved Business Investor Stream (BIS) will substitute the current PNP-B business immigration category. The BIS will enable the Canadian province to sign-up and nominate those qualified foreign business investors and entrepreneurs, who are determined and possess the ability to either start or purchase businesses in the province, inside the first 24 months of landing in Canada with a Temporary Work Permit. As per the new arrangements, there won’t any longer be the requirement–on the part of the applicants–to present a deposit of 100,000 Canadian Dollars to the Manitoba Administration.

The BIS will give preference to those candidates who launch a venture/mission inside the first 12 months of their landing in the province, particularly those keen to set-up their venture/mission outside the capital, Winnipeg.

The key motive behind the improvements seems to be generating work opportunities for the residents. Perhaps this is why the changes would guarantee that every business nominee makes investments in the ventures/firms that produce employment opportunities for the province, and makes handy contributions to its economy.

The BIS will have two pathways:

Meant for the candidates, eager to kick-start a firm/venture in the province, the candidates under the scheme would receive a Temporary Work Permit, and in place of proffering a good-faith deposit of 100,000 Canadian Dollars, they would ink a business performance deal. This will be done to either buy a present enterprise in the province or come up with a fresh entity.

Not less than three years of full time work experience during the preceding 5 years, either as an active business owner or working in a senior management role of a successful business, is required. Business proprietors are given higher points, vis-à-vis high-ranking managers. To make the cut for points, it is mandatory that the business owners possess not less than 33.3 % proprietorship. The new terms & conditions are listed to become effective in the first quarter of the next year.

Investment Requirements

The bare minimum investment will be 250,000 Canadian Dollars for the ventures/firms located in the Manitoba Capital Region.

In case a venture/firm is based outside of the territorial limits of the Manitoba Capital Region, the bare minimum investment will be 150,000 Canadian Dollars.

Making Business Investment in an entitled firm/venture as described by the MPNP is also mandatory.

The planned firm/venture must either generate or continue not less than 1 job for either a local Canadian Citizen or a Permanent Resident in Manitoba (this does not include the proprietors of the firm/venture and/or their close family members).

Farm Investor Pathway

Meant for those planning to set-up and run a farm operation in the rural areas of the province, under the pathway, the applicants will firstly get a Temporary Work Permit. Not less than three years of farm business management or farm proprietorship and operation experience well supported by provable certificates/papers is required. They will get nomination for Permanent Residence (PR) when they successfully set-up a firm/venture, which fulfills the different terms & conditions of a Business Performance Agreement.

Investment Requirements

An investment of not less than 150,000 Canadian Dollars is required. You must also set-up a farming business in the rural areas of the province.

It is mandatory that the farm business investments are ineligible physical assets as described by the MPNP.

You need to have a farm business plan even as it’s a vital component of the petition.

Investments in a farm business run and managed mainly for the objects of getting either passive investment income or hypothetical objects are not qualified.

B. MANITOBA SKILLED WORKER IMMIGRATION STEREAM

It has two streams, namely, the Skilled Workers Overseas Stream, and the Skilled Workers in Manitoba Stream both of these run under the MPNP Expression of Interest (EoI) System. Under the same, qualified applicants complete some questions online only to get a total, on the basis of the answers they offer. Those who get the highest scores obtain invites to present a petition to the MPNP. There are not any restrictions on the figure of the aspirants who may present an EoI and no deadline.

Important: The eligibility requirements for the two classes continue to remain in effect as of now.

The Process

The (EOI) system of the province has a three-step process.

Number 1: Probable applicants make an EoI in moving to Manitoba via answering a chain of questions and making a profile online. The profiles of eligible applicants are assigned a total on the basis of the answers given only to be put in the Pool for Manitoba EOI with other qualified aspirants. Applicants are given a position on the basis of the unique MPNP Ranking Points system and proffered a total out of a maximum of 1,000 points up-for-grabs.

Number 2: Those who get the highest scores can be sent an invite to apply to the programme. When a person is drawn from the EOI pool, he or she gets a Letter of Advice to Apply (LAA). Post getting a LAA, applicants will have just 60 days left to present a complete and correct petition to Manitoba.

Number 3: Post receiving a nomination from Manitoba, a person presents his or her complete paperwork to the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) and submits an application for Permanent Residence in the country.

SKILLED WORKERS OVERSEAS STREAM

A key change is the launch of a new in-demand occupations list that will be utilized to prioritize the EOI, for the object of sending invites to the petitions, from the new Skilled Worker Overseas category. What is an EOI? In order to submit an application to the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Programme for Business (MPNP- B), it is required that a potential applicant puts forward an EOI and gets a counsel from the MPNP-B to submit an application. While an EOI is not an application, there are no charges whatsoever for the submission of an EOI. An EOI specifies that you are keen to be mulled over for a Nomination Application to the MPNP-B.

Under the new arrangement, it will be further divided into two corridors, namely, the Manitoba Express Entry Pathway, and the Human Capital Pathway.

Manitoba Express Entry Pathway

This pathway may start entertaining petitions in January 2018. Those who may have the necessary qualifications under a MPNP category, and who also fulfill the different requirements for Express Entry, and have a dynamic Express Entry profile can apply under it. In all likelihood, the first draw to be carried-out, via the pathway would occur somewhere in the beginning of next year, 2018.

The applicants for Express Entry who obtain a provincial nomination, via an Express Entry-aligned stream, also called an enhanced nomination or stream could get 600 extra Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points. An Invitation to Apply (ITA) for the prized PR at a federal Express Entry draw may also come their way.

Human Capital Pathway

It is basically tailored for the international skilled worker candidates who have the necessary abilities and training as necessitated by the In-demand Occupations list, and who illustrate a good possibility for setting themselves up in their chosen vocations as soon as possible, post landing in the province. Besides other requirements, family links or previous post-secondary or employment experience in the province, during the preceding 5 years, are required to make the cut for the class.

SKILLED WORKERS IN MANITOBA STREAM

Under the class, petitions are admitted from the skilled temporary overseas manpower and international student graduates who are presently doing a job in the province and have a permanent work with their Manitoba recruiter /firm. Unlike the other links to the province in the MPNP, Skilled Workers in Manitoba are not subject to a points-based evaluation to decide their eligibility or otherwise. It is mandatory that the applicants fulfill the minimum requirements to be entered into the pool for EoI where they will be given a position on the basis of many factors.

Under the latest arrangement, the Skilled Workers in Manitoba Stream will also be subdivided into two pathways, namely, the Manitoba Work Experience Pathway, and Employer Direct Recruitment Pathway.

Manitoba Work Experience Pathway

It is meant for those presently working in the province armed with temporary work permits, and whose jobs do not find mention on the In-demand Occupations list. The candidates could be International Students who are out-of-province graduates, and the International Students who are Manitoba graduates involved with jobs not mentioned on the province’s published in-demand occupations list.

Requirements

It is mandatory that the candidates validate both the capacity and determination to live in the province. It is also required that the candidates is living and/or working in the province at the time of petition. Having a long-term, permanent employment offer that fulfills the province’s employment & salary standards for the profession is also required. It is also necessary that the applicant’s recruiter has a duly listed money-making firm/venture that has been running in the province for not less than three years immediately preceding the petition.

Other requirements include the candidate’s working conditions being at part with those of Canadian Citizens/Permanent Residents of the nation and his position being not home-based, freelance, provisional, seasonal, or commission-based.

Employer Direct Recruitment Pathway

It is meant for the international candidates having employment offers from the pre-sanctioned recruiters/job-providers of the province. A Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) agent and a qualified recruiter will take the interviews of the candidates outside of Canada even while those, who make the grade, will get an ITA, via the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP).

Requirements

It is compulsory that every aspirant fulfills the different eligibility conditions for the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP).

Not less than 3 years during the past 5 years of employment experience pertinent to the profession being recruited, or other pertinent experience acknowledged by the recruiter; OR applicable experience accepted by the recruiter in case more than 3 years. Long-term, full-time job offer that meets the province’s employment & salary standards for the occupation is also what the visa pathway seeks from the candidates.

It is also required that the recruiter has a registered money-making firm/venture that has been running in the province for not less than 3 years immediately preceding the petition. It is necessary that the candidate’s working conditions are consistent to those of Canadian Citizens/Permanent Residents of the nation. Besides, his position must not be any of these, namely, home-based, freelance, temporary, seasonal, or commission-based.

C. INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION STREAM

It’s duly tailored to offer quicker pathways to provincial nomination to those international students who graduate in the province, and whose abilities meet the specific requirements of the region’s recruiters/job-providers.

To become effective in April 2018, the new class will have the graduates in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) schemes who are concluding their internships that well support business innovation in their chosen domains of study on the radar. The USP of the programme: under it, the various international student graduates from the different establishments of the province who have discovered a long-term employment opportunity in an in-demand line-of-work won’t anymore have to do a job, for a period of six months, prior to they submit an application for the MPNP.

CANADA QUEBEC INVESTOR PROGRAM

The Quebec Immigrant Investor Program (QIIP) remains the only opportunity for high net worth individuals wishing to secure permanent residence in Canada on the basis of a passive investment.

Introduced in 1986, the highly successful Quebec Immigrant Investor Program (QIIP) offers qualified high net worth individuals and families worldwide the opportunity to immigrate to Canada through the Province of Quebec. With the closure of Canada’s Federal Immigrant Investor program, the exclusive QIIP is the only Canada investor visa of its kind currently available to international business people, and it boasts similar investment standards as the former federal program.

Quebec selects the candidates who meet its Immigrant Investor Program criteria and grants them a Quebec Selection Certificate. This document allows investors and their immediate families to apply for a permanent residence visa with the federal government of Canada, to obtain this visa unconditionally and, ultimately, to have the right to apply for Canadian citizenship after meeting the residency requirements.

The province of Quebec offers an Immigrant Investor Program that aims to attract wealthy individuals and their families and is managed by the Ministry of Immigration, Francisation, and Integration. Quebec society is modern, pluralist and egalitarian. It has welcomed more than 50,000 new immigrants every year since 2004. While French is the official language of the province, English is widely spoken in major cities and the business community. Under the Immigrant Investor Program, the interest on investments made by immigrant investors is distributed by the government as non-repayable contributions to Québec businesses as well as for funding the Employment Integration Program for Immigrants and Visible Minorities (PRIIME).

If you are planning to live in Quebec, we encourage you to visit the Province to assess the viability of your furture business prospects. You may claim points based on any business-related visits to Quebec within the last year from the date of your application.

Qualifying Criteria

– Have alone, or with an accompanying spouse, minimum net assets worth CAD$2,000,000 gained legally, including donations given more than six months before an application is filed.

– Have qualifying management experience for at least two years during the five years preceding the submission of an immigration application.

– Have the intention to settle in Quebec, sign an investment agreement with an authorized financial intermediary and invest CAD$1,200,000 for 5 years at 0% interest (financing is available).

– Candidates who can demonstrate knowledge of French through a standardized test can submit an application at any time.

– Obtain, by the prescribed deadline, an attestation of learning about democratic values and the Québec values. The members of your family accompanying you (your spouse of 16 years of age or older and your dependent children of 18 years of age or older) must also obtain the attestation.

ATTENTION: Intake Paused November 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020

Successful applicants are required to make their investment with Investissement Québec for a period of five years, at the end of which the capital is returned without interest. The five year period begins upon issuance of the selection certificate before the applicant has even landed in Canada. Successful applicants are issued a selection certificate from Quebec for Canada immigration, which allows them to obtain Canadian permanent residence following health and criminality examinations by Federal immigration authorities.

Important: Legally Aquired Networth

In order to meet the minimum net worth requirement of $2 million, applicants must demonstrate the net value of their current assets, as well as their history of the acquisition of funds over the course of their careers with supporting documentation.

Net worth is established through bank statements, investor booklets, real estate evaluations, audited financial statements and other pertinent and up to date documentation. Candidates are required to declare all of their personal assets and liabilities; however, they are not required to produce evidence of assets beyond $2 million.

Applicants must also demonstrate that their net worth was acquired legally. This takes into account the individual’s past employment income, businesses, local market conditions, inheritances and donations. While it is often difficult to produce detailed documentation of the early stages of an applicant’s career, clear supporting documents will facilitate the application process

You must intend to reside in Quebec. It is your responsibility to prove a genuine intention to reside in Ontario as described in Section 87(2) (b) of the Immigration Refugee Protection Act, S C 2001, c27, Regulations which state that “a foreign national is a member of the nominee class if they intend to reside in the province that nominated them”.

Processing Time

The province of Quebec takes between 12 to 14 months to process the application. IRCC, prior known as CIC, takes 3 to 4 years to issue the permanent resident status depending on your country of origin or residence. Therefore, it can approximately 4 to 5 years for you to arrive in Canada. Delays can be minimized by presenting all relevant information accurately and strategically. The government never advises the time needed to process an application but it always mentions the time it took to process 80% of the applications in the last year.

CANADA INTRA COMPANY TRANSFER PROGRAM (ICT)

If you work for a company that has a parent company, branch, subsidiary, or affiliate in Canada, you may be able to secure a Canadian work permit through the Intra-Company Transfer program.

Employers bringing international staff to Canada as intra-company transferees are exempt from the requirement to obtain a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). For this reason, the process can be quicker, simpler, and more cost effective than the LMIA route.

Qualified intra-company transferees provide ‘significant economic benefit to Canada’ through the transfer of their skills and expertise to the Canadian labour market. Intra-company transferees may be from any country.

Intra-Company Transfer categories

In order to be eligible to work in Canada under the Intra-Company Transfer program, foreign workers must fall into one of three defined categories:

Executives primarily direct the management of the enterprise, or a major component thereof, and receive only general (if any) supervision from higher level executives.

Senior managers manage all or part of the enterprise and supervise or control the work of other managers or professional employees.

Workers with ‘specialized knowledge’ can demonstrate specialized knowledge of the enterprise’s product or service, or an advanced level of expertise in the enterprise’s processes and procedures.

In all cases, workers being transferred to Canada must have at least one year of full-time work experience with the foreign enterprise and be coming to Canada to perform comparable work. There must be a qualifying relationship between the employer and employee in order for a work permit to be issued.

Intra-Company Transfer work permit duration

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) stipulates that initial work permits granted under the Intra-Company Transfer program are typically for a one-year duration. However, these work permits may be renewed.

For renewals, evidence should be provided that:

the Canadian and foreign companies still have a qualifying relationship;

the new office has engaged in the continuous provision of goods or services for the past year; and

the new office has been staffed appropriately.

Transition to Permanent Residence

Intra-company transferees are often in a strong position to become permanent residents of Canada, should they wish to do so. Permanent residents can reside and work in any location in Canada.

Since launching in 2015, Canada’s Express Entry immigration selection system has become the main driver of economic immigration to Canada. In November, 2016, intra-company transferees looking to transition to permanent residence received a major boost as IRCC changed the Express Entry system to allow these workers to obtain Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points without first being issued a LMIA. This important change has made it easier for intra-company transferees to increase their CRS score, leading to an improved chance of being invited to apply for permanent residence.

There may also be options to transition to permanent residence outside the Express Entry system, such as through one of the Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs).

Ultimately, some people who begin working in Canada as intra-company transferees may become naturalized Canadian citizens. This step comes after the granting of permanent residence.

L1 Visa Introduction

The United States L1 visa is a non-immigrant visa which allows overseas companies to transfer employees under two types of L1 visa schemes. For L1 visa transfers of executives and managers including business owners for up to seven years there is the L1A visa, and for specialized knowledge employees the L1B visa allows entry for up to five years to a new or existing US office. To qualify for an L1 visa the employee, which can include business owners, must have worked for a subsidiary, parent, affiliate or branch office of the US company outside of the US for at least one year out of the last three years.

One of the benefits of the L1 visa is that there is no quota. Unlike in the case of the H1B visa category, an unlimited number of visas can be issued. However, unless the company is a very large company with blanket filing a considerable amount of documentation needs to be submitted for each L1 visa petition to the USCIS in duplicate. Indians and Chinese nationals are able to come under the L1 visa category. They are unable to come under the E2 visa and E1 visa which is limited only to certain nationalities.

Business owners can also apply for L1 Visa

This can be an excellent way for businesses including small businesses to expand into the US with a minimal investment. However, the business outside the US should continue trading even after the L1 visa holder has entered the US. Business owners who have worked for the business outside the US for one year in the last three years, wishing to set up a business in the US can apply without having to make a large investment of at least half a million dollars as required under the EB5 immigrant investor scheme.

L1 Visa and Employment Based EB1C Green Card

The requirements for employment based immigration (permanent residence) under the EB1C immigrant scheme are similar to the requirements for the L1A Executive and Manager visa category. Many overseas executives and managers including business owners come under the L1A visa scheme first and then apply at a later date for EB1C as an international manager or executive which is one of the best ways of gaining an employment based immigrant visa (green card).

As you need to show that you have worked for the business outside the US for at least one year in the last three years, you need to apply for the EB1C immigrant visa within two years of entry to the US on an L1 visa. The business needs to have been established in the US for at least one year before you can apply under this green card scheme.

Companies operating in the US can apply to the relevant USCIS service center for an L1 intracompany transfer visa to transfer someone to the US from their overseas operations. Employees in this category will, initially, be granted an L1 visa for up to three years. For a new office (that has been in operation for less than a year) the L1 visa is granted for one year.

There are two types of employee who may be sponsored for USA L1 visa:

L1A Executives and Managers — L1 Visa requirements for management and executive roles for these purposes is quite strict, and a detailed description of the duties attached to the position will be required. In particular, the executive or manager should have supervisory responsibility for professional staff and/or for a key function of the department or subdivision of the employer. Such personnel are issued an L1A visa, initially for a three year period extendible in two year increments to a maximum of seven years. For a new US office entry for an L1 visa is granted for one year.

L1B Specialized Knowledge Staff — This category covers those with knowledge of the company’s products/services, research, systems, proprietary techniques, management, or procedures. This should be explained in some detail when applying for the L1 visa. Staff in this category are issued an L1B visa, initially for three years extendable to a maximum of five years.On completing the maximum allowable period in L1 visa status, the employee must be employed outside the United States for a minimum of one year before a new application is made for L or H status.

2. Investment in a Regional Center

Regional centers are investment opportunities that have been pre-approved by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. To be eligible for this investment option, applicants must meet the following criteria:

Make an investment of US$900,000.

Create full-time employment for at least 10 qualified U.S. workers, where indirect employment is permitted.

Active management of the enterprise is not required.
