Self Employed Persons Visa
Self-employed people are also welcome to immigrate to Canada on a specific business visa. The Self-Employed Persons Program offers a direct route to becoming a permanent resident for those who are professionals in athletics or cultural fields. Though this sounds welcoming, there is also quite a bit of pressure, as you will have to contribute significantly to the Canadian economy.
Eligibility Requirements for The Self-Employed
To become eligible for this business visa type, you must meet the following requirements:
- A minimum of two years of experience in athletics or cultural activities at a world-class level.
- The experience must be gained in the 5 years prior to your request for this visa type.
- Proof that you have sufficient funds to support yourself during your relocation to Canada.
- Proof that you will significantly contribute to Canada’s economy in either athletics or cultural activities.
- To ensure you have the mandatory skills required, you must score a minimum of 35 on the point-based selection grid. The point-based system calculates your score based on experience, education, language proficiency, age, and adaptability.
- Undergo security and criminal checks and health exam reports.
