Individuals from around the world can apply under various investment categories to settle in Canada. Currently, only two federal investment programs are active, but investors also have the option to apply through Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) or explore unique pathways offered by the province of Quebec.

The Quebec Immigrant Investor Program is tailored for experienced professionals in management roles who have a genuine intention to settle in Quebec.

The Provincial Nominee Programs for Entrepreneurs were established to provide additional opportunities for investors. Each province and territory has the authority to design and manage its own immigration streams based on local economic needs and priorities. A wide range of programs are available, catering to all types of investors—from small business owners to large corporations.
