    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    Good points. Many incubators I spoke with are looking for startups with 'existing revenue' not those at idea stage. I guess they are looking for entrepreneurs who have created a solid business outside Canada and are simply moving it here to pay taxes.

    Startup Visa Program Timeline

    Hello guys, would anyone please advise if everyone in the application must stay in Canada to run this startup before receiving the PR. Two of my partners have to travel a lot outside the country to oversee sales in Asian markets. I am not sure if this will harm our application as a whole.

    How to continue prescription in Canada?

    Hi all, I have been taking a specialty medication for 5 years in the US and I was wondering if I can directly go to a family physician or a walk-in clinic to get a new prescription to continue my treatment. If yes, what kind of paperwork do I need to bring? If no, do I need to go through all...

    CIC spent one full year to process my case with all the police certs and such after receiving my medical. Therefore, my visa, received today on 2/7, unbelievably, expires on 2/10, leaving me only 3 days to land. Since I reside in NYC and I don't know if I can take my days off work, I appreciate...
