1. Think long term:
Consider the enduring advantages such as exceptional quality of life, robust job prospects, state-funded healthcare, free public education, cultural diversity, peace, and the global prestige of Canada's passport, currently ranked 6th worldwide. These advantages not only enrich the lives of your children but also promise prosperity for generations to come. Yes, that includes your great-grandchildren!
2. Act today, don't wait for tomorrow:
You could already be a Canadian Permanent Resident or Citizen if you had started the process when you first thought about it.
3. Time processing is not "too much":
While 36 months may seem protracted for the Start-up Visa process, contemplate its yield as Permanent Residency and Citizenship are enduring statuses extending across generations. Is 36 months an exorbitant interval for over a century of benefits?
4. Trust in us:
Our proficiency in business immigration ensures a smooth journey. Partner with us and embrace the path ahead.
5. Beware of cheap Offers:
While we encourage healthy competition, be cautious of legal firms offering overly generous deals. Quality service often outweighs cut-rate prices.
6. No, it is not too expensive:
The range of $25,000 to $290,000 for immigration to Canada offers viable options. These investments can be offset by future savings on education and healthcare.
7. Timing Matters:
It was easier to immigrate to Canada 20 years ago. 15 years ago, it was easier than 10 years ago. 5 years ago, better than today. What about tomorrow?
8. Anticipate challenges ahead:
Canada's evolving landscape, marked by refugee challenges and increasing demand for blue-collar laborers, will restricts opportunities for business immigrants like yourself.
9. Political impact on the horizon:
The upcoming 2025 election could unfavorably influence immigration policy, particularly under a Conservative party leadership known for its historical stance on federal immigrant investor programs.
10. One dark prediction:
Anticipate the inevitable termination of the singular direct Permanent Residency route, the Start-up Visa, by late 2025 or early 2026.
