    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    Have you seen the latest updates on immigration policy today? Is there any good news? I haven’t come across anything positive so far and was really hoping to find some bright spots here in the forum.

    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    Welcome back, and big congrats on getting your PR and citizenship! Even though it’s been years, it’s always nice to hear good news like that here on the forum. I totally agree with you. If the SUV processing time really stretches to 10 years, then the whole purpose of the program no longer...

    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    What I’ve heard is that the current info came out during the handover of the new immigration minister, they discovered these issues and made them public to get the government’s attention and hopefully push for policy changes. My take is that they’re basically dumping the mess from the previous...

    Inquiry on AOR Status Updates for 2023 and 2024 Startup Visa Applicants

    If you have not started your business in Canada yet, I think that might be a good thing. The current processing times are very long. It is also difficult to manage running a business and applying for the Startup Visa at the same time. There is no clear information right now, so I hope more...

    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    Hi there, Thanks a lot for your sharing, really helpful! I have a couple of questions about the SUV process: After receiving the AOR, at what stage does IRCC usually ask for more details about the startup plan or business progress? I see terms like AOR, ADR, PAL1, PAL2 in the SUV process. Are...

    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    I submitted my Startup Visa SUV project last year, in February. What month did you submit yours? I haven't received an AOR yet. Do you know what stage the 2023 SUV projects are currently at? I'm trying to see when they might start processing the 2024 SUV projects.

    This information is excellent, thank you. In the form, the field "PR App Decision Process Date - Year" refers to the year when the PR decision was made, right? If the decision was made in 2025, is it usually referring to PR approvals for PR applications (SUV) submitted in 2022 or 2023? Given...

    SUV PR-application: criminality / security stuck for 10 months, co-founder already got PAL — what can I do?

    Yes, I was worried that I might have misunderstood, which is why I wanted to confirm with you again. Your progress is extremely fast—you are ahead of 99% of the applicants on the forum. If I understood correctly, you applied for the Startup Visa program in February 2024 and already have your...

    SUV PR-application: criminality / security stuck for 10 months, co-founder already got PAL — what can I do?

    May I ask when you submitted your SUV application? I noticed you received your AOR in 2024, was that correct?

    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    I have seen a lot of discouraging information regarding the Startup Visa program. I would like to ask if any applications submitted in 2024 have already received an AOR? Additionally, are there still any applications from before 2024 that have not yet received an AOR? I am trying to get an idea...

    You are absolutely right, especially about the frustrations with the debit card limit. My business has been operating in Canada for over a year now. I have even hired two local Canadians to help with sales and operations. The company generates monthly revenue. I do pay taxes and do not receive...
