British Columbia Entrepreneur Stream Is Back After A ONE-YEAR Pause
It is great news for the business immigrants that almost after a year on hold, British Columbia is now accepting applications under the Entrepreneur Immigration (EI) base category of its Provincial Nominee Program. The base category of that program was temporarily halted on July 19, last year, while the West Coast province figured out how to best connect it with its immigration and economic recovery aims.
The whole BC PNP EI base category program guide is now available online, with 18 revisions, most of which are minor clarifications or extra criteria.
However, there has been one major change in the program. As of July 13, immigration authorities in British Columbia will issue Invitations to Apply (ITAs) on the basis of new characteristics such as the business sector, prospective business location, and community demographics.
British Columbia paid out 232 ITAs to applicants under the basic category of this program in 2019, the final full year before the COVID-19 epidemic, and will now continue those regular drawings for high-scoring businesses eligible under the registration pool.
Candidates for the EI stream must fulfil certain standards, including a net worth of $600,000, a $200,000 investment in a new or existing firm, and the creation of one full-time employment for a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
