Hello
I entered Canada about a year ago on a 2 year IEC Visa. I have lived with my girlfriend since then who is originally from Quebec.
I am now eligible to apply for permanent residence due to common law but it is a long process.
I/we are looking to start a business but my research tells me I need to be a permanent resident to start a business in Canada.
So if I wanted to start one before I got permanent residency is it legal/allwoed if my girlfriend registers the business under her name as she is a citizen but I run/control the business. I'm guessing a law expert would know the full details but any tips/advice would be appreciated as to what my next steps could be.
Thank You in advance
