The official website of Citizenship and Immigration Canada has released the latest information:2011 annual federal immigration limit of700 spots has been reached, and the federal investor immigration program for this year is now closed. In the future, unless new policies or regulations are introduced, the 700 spots for the federal investor immigration program for the next year will reopen on July 1, 2012.
Earlier, after the Canadian federal government announced the quota policy, the Quebec Immigration Ministry announced that it would add15 immigration officers in Hong Kong and Montreal. After the increase in staff, the number of immigration applications that can be processed is expected to increase by50%. Data shows that from January to May 2011, Quebec received a total of719 investor immigration applications, of which 60%(437 cases) were from Asia. Among all applications from Asia, 90% were from Chinese applicants.
Worldway immigration experts believe that the Quebec Immigration Ministry's decision to add more immigration officers is, on one hand, to alleviate the pressure of case processing. On the other hand, it also indicates that with the implementation of the federal immigration quota policy and its rapid fulfillment, immigration offices in various Canadian provinces will increase the number of immigration officers to cope with the large number of investor immigration clients who did not catch the federal immigration "last train." At this time, clients can choose the appropriate country and investment immigration project to transfer their cases according to their own circumstances, and must seize the time to submit their applications to realize their immigration dreams as soon as possible.
Option 1: Quebec Investor Immigration
Currently, the application requirements for Quebec Investor Immigration and Federal Investor Immigration are basically the same, both requiring proof of net assets of1.6 million CAD and a project investment of800,000 CAD. Compared with the federal investor immigration program, the processing cycle for Quebec Investor Immigration is shorter. This time, 15 additional immigration officers have been dispatched, which will greatly increase the processing speed. Furthermore, the interview process is accompanied by a lawyer, and we believe you can successfully and quickly realize your dream of immigrating to Canada.
Worldway immigration experts also predict: Based on past experience, it is not difficult to predict that once the number of applications increases and there is a backlog of cases, it is highly likely that Quebec will follow the federal government's lead and implement a quota policy.
Therefore, if clients who previously missed the federal investor immigration program wish to transfer their cases to Quebec at this time, they should provide their application materials as soon as possible to avoid missing the best time to immigrate to Canada again. Judging from the current application situation in Quebec, the next 3 months will be a better time to apply for Quebec Investor Immigration.
Option 2: Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (Entrepreneur Category)
Compared to the 1.6 million CAD asset proof and 800,000 CAD investment amount required for federal and Quebec investor immigration, the Saskatchewan investor immigration program only requires investors to provide proof of net assets of300,000 CAD and a project investment of at least150,000 CAD, which allows investor immigration clients who did not meet the requirements for federal and Quebec immigration to also apply for immigration to Canada.
Investors applying for the Saskatchewan investor immigration program are required to have entrepreneurial experience or relevant business management experience, and be willing to settle in Saskatchewan and participate in the investment. By choosing Saskatchewan, investor immigration clients can, on one hand, invest in local enterprises, participate in project operations, and accumulate management experience and skills, and on the other hand, realize their dream of immigrating to Canada. At the same time, it also provides experience and funds for you to start a new business in the future. In order to attract foreign investment to develop the local economy, the Saskatchewan government will also strongly support the project to ensure your successful immigration to Canada.
Worldway immigration experts believe that considering the large number of clients who will transfer from federal immigration in the next few months, clients who are interested in immigrating to Canada should submit their applications as soon as possible to avoid slowing down your approval progress due to a large backlog of cases.
Option 3: US Investor Immigration
The United States and Canada have always been the two most popular investment immigration countries for Chinese people. Although US investor immigration has certain risks, due to the "sudden appearance" of the Canadian federal immigration quota policy and the "changeable" policies of various provincial immigration offices in Canada, some clients who originally wanted to invest in Canada have transferred their cases to the United States. Especially at this stage, the exchange rate of the RMB against the USD continues to hit new highs, which constantly reduces the immigration costs for applicants, and more and more applicants are choosing to immigrate to the United States, which to a large extent has increased the pressure on US immigration officers to process cases.
At the same time, as the deadline for the US EB-5 investor immigration program approaches, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services may adjust the investment amount, so applicants should also seize the time and apply as soon as possible!
Currently, for clients planning to apply for US investor immigration, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services has announced a major piece of good news: The immigration bureau stated that it will accelerate the processing of those investment immigration entrepreneurship projects that have been fully planned and can be implemented quickly, and at the same time provide priority fast-track processing services(Premium Processing Service) for investor immigration applicants. After paying an additional fee, the review will be completed within15 working days. In this way, investors can save months of waiting for approval results and can immediately adjust their immigration decisions in a shorter period of time.
The US investor immigration Washington State government bond project recently recommended by Worldway will hold a project briefing on August 6. We welcome investor immigration clients who are interested in transferring their cases to the United States to attend. For details, please consult:400-138-2929
Option 4: Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program
Due to the sudden quota measures of the federal investor immigration program, the Canadian provincial nominee immigration programs have been greatly stimulated. Compared with the federal investor immigration and Quebec investor immigration, other provincial nominee immigration programs do not require a large amount of investment, which can be said to be the best choice for investors with insufficient funds.
The Manitoba (hereinafter referred to as MB) nominee student program recommended by Worldway can help you get a Canadian permanent resident card faster compared to other Canadian provincial nominee immigration programs.
The Canadian MB nominee student program is a study-abroad immigration program operated in conjunction with public universities in Manitoba. International students can obtain a Manitoba university diploma after10 months of professional course study, which is recognized throughout North America and China. After graduation, the immigration company is responsible for arranging jobs related to the major, and helps international students apply for Manitoba immigration nomination after 6 months. The biggest highlight of this project is the one-stop study-abroad immigration service first introduced in China, which is convenient and fast. Compared with traditional study-abroad programs, study-abroad costs are saved by at least 3/4, and the study time is also greatly shortened, saving time and money. At the same time, it can ensure the success rate of immigration. Once one person successfully immigrates, they can also act as a guarantor for relatives within three generations to apply for immigration to Canada.
Currently, the Canadian MB nominee student program is being fully promoted. This program can not only help you complete your children's study-abroad plan, but also realize your family's dream of immigrating to Canada. It kills two birds with one stone, saving time and money!
In summary, under the situation where the Canadian federal immigration quota has been reached, the most important way for investor immigration clients to successfully realize their immigration dreams is: under the guidance of a professional immigration agency, choose the appropriate immigration country and project according to your own situation, and especially seize the time to submit your application in a timely manner to ensure the success of your immigration!
