    Startup business PR visa

    If you are planning to use the SUV program just to get PR and have no intention of pursuing your business that might come up somehow, but if you try and your business fails that no problem what so ever.

    Incubators asking for large amount of money to get letter of support.

    Hi, If you don't already have a business that is generating revenue and isn't growing 30% month over month it's almost impossible to raise money from angel investors. You should try to get accepted into an incubation program, but if you only have just an idea and nothing else no incubator will...

    Incubators asking for large amount of money to get letter of support.

    Hi everyone, Sorry for the late reply. Every incubator has its own requirements and programs so what works for me might not work for you. My incubator is The Inc. from Calgary. Thank you! All the best

    Let me know that you want to know exactly, there is not much else about the payment with the incubator. I signed the contract that said I have to pay when I get my PR. I actually paid them after 3 weeks of being there they did not rush me with the payment at all.

    I did not know that, good this I did not register, so basically there is no upside for registering the business before landing. Thank you!

    Thank you! I was aware of the peer review process and I was advised to lower the risk of your application going thru the peer review process to register the business in Canada before sending the application. I knew that the IRCC will do their due diligence but I assumed it would go in so...

    I only check this after I got the PPR and I noticed the status changed from In Progress to Decision made, but no updates since the last request about my documents. So I went straight from Pre-arrival invitation to PPR.

    I was asked by the incubator to complete a free online business course before they issued the letter of support, after this I had one final call with them telling them about the course and after this I got the letter of support.

    The first set of documents was about my work experience and the second was required an explanation about the business how it will operate in Canada. If you think that those requests are unusual I thought that too, but I think they either were doing their due diligence or just being extra careful...

    Hi everyone, looks like my last comment was read by IRCC because I just got my PPR letter. It took 7 weeks since I got the pre-arrival service invitation to PPR.

    Incubators asking for large amount of money to get letter of support.

    My incubator asked for just under 10k to be accepted into the program and it covers 1year office space and also some of the courses that the incubator offers and some other perks. This was disclosed to me early and I will pay the full amount to the incubator when I get my permanent residence...

    I'm in an almost exact position as you. I don't think anyone had to wait this long before so we are the first ones that will update the others, let's hope next week will see some progress.
