Ways to immigrate to Quebec

According to the latest news, the Quebec government has decided to examine about 44,000 immigration cases in 2020. Out of this number, about 24,000 people will be able to receive the Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CSQ). It is said that this government plans to accept more than 50% of new immigrants through the Quebec economic immigration program.

You should also know that an important part of this program is related to the Quebec Skilled Worker Program. So, if you are a specialist, you have a great chance to immigrate and stay in Quebec. But other methods still exist.

1- Immigrate to Quebec through investment

Immigration by investment is the easiest way to immigrate. In the Investor Immigration Program (QIIP), you can get Canadian permanent residence by investing $1.2 million. Using this method, you do not need a French or even English language certificate.

Your investment will be risk-free and guaranteed to be fully returned by the Quebec government after 5 years. Free education for your child, use of health insurance and use of all the services that other Canadian citizens receive are among other benefits of this method.

But even though investing is the easiest method, it also has conditions that you can see in the list below:

• Your minimum assets to immigrate with this method must be 2 million Canadian dollars.
• Making an investment of 1.2 million dollars in this country
• In the last 5 years, you must have at least 2 years of management experience in the whole or part of the company. Of course, it doesn’t matter if this company was owned by you or not. It is also better to know that this case must be proven with official documents. Documents including the company’s planning offices, documents that you are under the control or supervision of departments such as financial resources or human resources play an important role in the acceptance of your application.
• You must have at least a diploma. This certificate must also be obtained from high school.
• Health certificate and no bad background are also considered as the main documents.

Note that according to the latest news, this immigration method has been suspended until the beginning of July 2020. But don’t worry, probably after this time, with specific rules, you can do it again this way. Simon Jolin-Barrette, the Minister of Immigration of Quebec, stated that the reason for this suspension is the accumulation of more than 20,000 applications for permanent residence in Quebec that have not yet been processed.

2- Immigrate to Quebec through entrepreneurship

The Canadian government always paves the way to make entrepreneurship easier. As an entrepreneur, you can take advantage of this special Quebec program and choose this way to immigrate. In general, there are two main methods or processes for this method, which we will mention below.

To immigrate to Quebec through entrepreneurship, you must choose to live in this province. You should also choose one of the businesses offered by the University Entrepreneurship Center, Business Accelerator, or Business Incubator.

It is possible for applicants to present their proposed business as well. If the business plan presented by the applicant is accepted by these organizations, the process can be continued. In these organizations, projects will be carefully evaluated. From the exact budget required to the level of business efficiency and even checking the ability of a person to manage and implement the project as a business, they are examined in these organizations.

If you plan to implement your entrepreneurial plan, the way you present it to these organizations is of great importance. You have to convince them that your plan can make a successful business in Quebec. Providing detailed planning, operational plan, required budget and accurate and transparent business efficiency can help a lot to approve your plan. You can apply for entrepreneurship with three other eligible people. Of course, it is also possible to do it alone.

Buying a business in Quebec

But if you think you can’t handle the hassles and hassles of starting a business, there is another option. You can buy a business in Quebec. In this case, it is enough to own 51% of it. The value of the buyer’s share should be about 200 thousand Canadian dollars. There is also a note that if you intend to stay in Montreal, the value of this share must reach 300 thousand Canadian dollars.

If you create a business (without buying it), only 25% ownership will be enough to allow you to immigrate through entrepreneurship. You should also know that you cannot buy a business that has been bought by another immigration applicant in the last 5 years.

Note that general conditions such as age, language qualifications (French or English), education, good financial conditions, your previous trips to Quebec and ownership or management of an active business in the last 5 years are of great importance.

3- Immigrate to Quebec as an expert technical force

If you are a technical professional with a strong resume, you have a good chance of getting a Canadian visa and staying in Quebec. You will also be provided with very good working conditions. In this way, your conditions will be carefully evaluated with your resume.
