Citizenship and Immigration Canada established the Immigrant Investor Program to promote economic development and employment in Canada by attracting people with capital, business acumen and/or solid managerial skills for business immigration to Canada.

As a qualified Immigrant Investor, you and your immediate family can obtain Canada Immigration (Permanent Resident) Visas by investing CAD$ 400,000 for five (5) years under the Federal Program (applicants intending to reside anywhere in Canada, except Quebec) or the Quebec Program (applicants intending to reside in the province of Quebec). Both programs are Government guaranteed, assuring that your CAD$ 400,000 will be reimbursed in full, without interest, at the end of five (5) years.

The table below summarizes the eligibility requirements of both the Federal and Quebec Programs.
