Hello everyone,
I've found some interesting information on getting citizenship by investing. I would like to ask if anyone has experience with it and knows how it goes. I would be interested in a particular case of Canada. I found only a few articles on the internet. (http://incitizen.com/citizenship-by-investment/citizenship-investment-canada) and I would like to learn more about it.
Thank you for your answer
You are not getting citizenship by investing. All you really doing is getting PR through investment such as start-up visa. Once you have PR, you qualify for citizenship after meeting 3/5 year rule.

Several countries like Panama, Granada, Malta etc only offers such schemes. Not Canada or any such a well developed big economy offer a "Direct" citizenship. Austria and Greece has similar program requiring a very high investment though.

Thanks for the information. It is better to look elsewhere, or any other country where citizenship by investment can be used than in Canada.

Sounds like you just want to buy citizenship without the hassle of "permanent resident" status of any country. Is that right?

why do you think?
I can't even access their web page, but if they're advising a route to citizenship that's not actually there, and that requires you to shell out a lot of money, their intention is rather questionable in the very least...

Yes it is possible, you get your PR through investment, land and live in Canada for 3 years, then you can apply for citizenship , easy ,right ?

That is the only way to get citizenship. The OP is only interested in citizenship right away without waiting 3 years as PR.
