3. Guidance on Acquiring Canadian PR Through Investment
People who intend to acquire Canadian PR through investment must follow a complex multi-step process. This process’s complexity makes it difficult to navigate through. However, applicants will also need to gather and submit specific documents within certain timelines.
A consultation with a business immigration consultant will make it easier to navigate through this process. The consultant will outline each step you need to perform and offer guidance on when and how to do them.
4. Overview of Your Current Business Plan
