We recently secured a C11 approval for our client and he will be relocating to Canada within a couple of months.
Our client will travel to Canada with his wife and 3 minor children. While the principal applicant will be issued an Entrepreneur work permit, his spouse will be eligible for an open work permit, allowing her to be employed by any Canadian employer in any capacity. Their children will be entitled to study permits for the same duration (up to 2 years).
The client established a new company in Canada, and he plans to become an exclusive distributor of building materials. The company plans to achieve this by building a strong network of distributors and partnering with key players in the industry.
In support of his business intent, our client signed Memorandums of Understanding with distribution companies, which were disclosed in his application and presented to the Canadian Immigration Authorities. He has also demonstrated that he owns the assets required for the company development. The client has full control of amounts to invest as well as the timing of investments.
This client has some prior business ownership experience. However for the past number of years he was working as a salaried employee. As you may see, it did not prevent him from securing a positive decision under the C11 category.
