APS GLOBAL PARTNERS, AFRICAN ENTREPRENEURS AND STARTUP VISA PROGRAM

The Canadian government had some time ago announced a new path to immigration to Canada. It is a program for startups. This means that if a person has a business idea, he can move to Canada for permanent residence and obtain a Canadian passport subsequently. A Canadian passport is a visa-free entry into about 172 countries.

Access to the social security system begins shortly after the arrival in Canada. This includes free healthcare, education, retirement, and social protection. To obtain a Canadian Permanent Resident Visa under this program, one must be admitted to one of the business incubators, an angel investor group or a venture capital fund authorized by the government of Canada. Once a person is accepted, he gets a so-called Support Letter. This document is the basis for obtaining a residence permit through the Canadian Startup Visa Program.
