Canada is a land of opportunities, and the Treaty Investor program offers a unique pathway for entrepreneurs and investors to establish themselves in the country. This LMIA-exempt work permit allows investors to bring their vision to life without the complexities of needing a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA).

Key Highlights of the Treaty Investor Program:

1. No LMIA Required
   Investors can bypass the lengthy LMIA process, streamlining the pathway to obtain a work permit.

2. No Need for an Existing Company Outside of Canada
   Unlike other business immigration options, there’s no requirement to already own or operate a company outside of Canada.

3. Minimum Investment of C$250,000
   A minimum investment of at least C$250,000 is required. This investment must be directed toward establishing or expanding a business in Canada.

4. Proof of Funds
   Investors must demonstrate the legitimate source of their investment funds to qualify for the program.

5. Ability to Bring Additional Workers
   Investors can bring additional workers to support their business operations in Canada. These workers:

   • Do not need to be current employees of the investor.

   • Must be of the same nationality as the investor.

6. Express Entry Benefits
   After 12 months on a work permit under the Treaty Investor program, investors may receive significant advantages for Express Entry:

   • 200 Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) Points if the work permit is issued under a NOC00XX category (for senior-level positions).

   • 50 CRS Points for other eligible roles.

7. Eligible Countries
   Citizens from the following countries can participate in the Treaty Investor program:

   • All European countries, including the UK
