PROVINCIAL NOMINEE INVESTOR VISA CANADA

The province of Ontario recognizes that employers play a critical role in economic success. For many employers, newcomers to Ontario are a valuable source of skilled workers and professionals. The Ontario Pilot Provincial Nominee Program - Multinational Investor Stream has been created to assist multinational firms establishing or expanding their businesses in Ontario wanting to bring key executives, managers or employees to work in their Ontario operations.

This program seeks to foster a significant investment in Ontario which will lead to job creation and economic development. The Ontario Multinational Investor category favours employer applicants who make a qualifying investment in Ontario of $3 million or more, and create 5 net permanent full-time positions. The visa allows applicants the opportunity to immigrate and settle themselves and their families in the prosperous Canadian province of Ontario.

PROVINCIAL NOMINEE INVESTOR VISA BASIC REQUIREMENTS

The Ontario Pilot Provincial Nominee Program - Multinational Investor stream is intended for companies that will make a significant investment in Ontario which will lead to job creation and economic development. To be eligible for the Pilot PNP, a company must:

• Make a qualifying investment in Ontario of $3 million or more;
• Create at least 5 net permanent full-time positions;

If the employer is approved for the program, employees - known as 'nominees' - then apply to the Pilot PNP for individual approval. The Pilot PNP is a program of the Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration.
