I am confused

[Sal_Ghonem]

Hi all,

I wondered into this site looking for some help. I am new and confused.
I have been on a work permit here for the past 18 months. I extended my stay as a visitor hoping to land another job.

Also, I have a business idea and I think I have enough experience for it. I am planning to start as self-employed. I looked up the CIC to find out if I can apply while still here, but it is confusing. I do not know what I should or should not do. I do not want to mess up. I do not understand.

Could you please please help me understand this puzzle?

Thank you,

Sal

Hi

There is no self employed work visa category  unless you have the money to be an investor PNP or Federal
