With the changes in the domestic environment, more and more middle-class and elites are considering applying for Canadian immigration. However, after applying for the application conditions of Canada, such as: federal skilled immigration , federal experience immigration, provincial nomination (PNP) projects in various provinces, Quebec investment immigration , etc., I found that a considerable proportion of the projects are actually not suitable for me. At this time, many friends were a little discouraged. Is there really no other way to apply for Canadian immigration? The answer is of course no. Especially for the majority of practitioners engaged in culture, art and sports, there is actually another type of federal immigration program that has the hope of working~
In order to promote the development of Canadian multiculturalism, the federal government launched a new immigration method in 1994 called " self-employed immigration ". Self-Employed Person, i.e., self-employed persons: because they have relevant experience in working for themselves. The self-employed person must have the willingness and ability to engage in self-employed activities in the arts or sports field in Canada, and make special contributions to Canadian society and culture; from a large-scale career perspective, only people such as culture, arts and sports meet the requirements, and personal coaches, internet celebrities, photography, and creators can all be used. The following is a list of some occupations:
Advantages and characteristics of the self-employed program
1. Low threshold: There are no mandatory requirements such as age, education, language, etc., and you only need to reach the 35-point threshold requirement for comprehensive scoring (see the "Federal Self-Employment Score" below).
2. Relatively speaking, the self-employed immigration project only costs about 300,000 yuan. The country is waiting to be approved for maple leaf card . This is a major advantage of the self-employed immigration project in Canada.
3. One-step permanent residence: The whole family obtains a maple leaf card in one step. There is no need to apply for a work visa in advance during the application process, which will not affect your current work and life.
How to prove self-employed occupation:
1. Use tax records or transaction records to prove income and self-employed occupation.
2. Business proof materials, such as class records, designer design contracts, writer's publishing books, film and television works, etc.
3. Self-employed immigration does not require IELTS scores, but it will improve the success rate
Immigration officials mainly look at three points
1. Whether the applicant's self-employed experience meets the requirements.
2. Applicant’s business plan in Canada. Immigration officials will use the plan to determine whether the applicant can continue his or her major in Canada and achieve success in the future.
3. Can the applicant contribute to Canada. The word "contribution" is actually very vague. As long as you express your professional ability, you can contribute to Canada's society, community, culture, education or a specific group of people.
Self-employed immigration application fee is low, so you don’t need to take the IELTS exam. So if the career meets the requirements, it is indeed a good way to immigration!
