Provincial Nominee Investor Visa Canada
Canada recognizes that employers play a critical role in economic success. For many employers, newcomers to Canada are a valuable source of skilled workers and professionals. The Provincial Nominee Investor Visas have been created to assist multinational firms establishing or expanding their businesses in Canada and wanting to bring key executives, managers or employees to work in their operations.
This program seeks to foster a significant investment in Canada, which will lead to job creation and economic development. These visas favor employer applicants who make a qualifying investment, and create permanent full-time positions. These visas allow applicants the opportunity to immigrate and settle themselves and their families in the prosperous Canadian provinces of Ontario or Saskatchewan.
The Ontario Provincial Nominee Program – Multinational Investor stream is intended for companies that will make a significant investment in Ontario, which will lead to job creation and economic development. To be eligible, a company must:
