According to the World Journal in Canada, there has been no conclusion on when Canada's federal investment immigration will reopen, but internal documents from the immigration department indicate that officials have suggested to the immigration minister to significantly increase the investment amount to between 2 million and 3 million Canadian dollars, and to establish minimum language proficiency requirements for applicants as well as third-party background checks.
Officials have also expressed concerns regarding the Quebec investment immigration program, noting that since 2010, there has been a significant increase in immigrants applying through the Quebec investment immigration program and reporting to Quebec, resulting in the total number of investment immigrants in 2011 exceeding the "approved target," and the situation was similar in 2012.
The immigration department hopes to discuss with relevant organizations to find a consensus on reforming the federal and Quebec investment immigration programs, enhancing the value of the program, and reducing the impact of the planning process. Following public consultations in August 2012, officials believe that significantly increasing the investment amount, establishing language requirements, and implementing third-party background checks have received widespread support.
