Hello everyone,

My work permit under the Start-up Visa program will expire soon and I’m currently in Canada. I think I don’t need to extend my work permit because I can run my business in Canada from my home country (remotely). Will this affect my application (status with AOR number) for permanent residence? Please give me some advice. Thank you very much.
If you could provide solid proof that it is the case and you really can operate your business remotely it should not be any problem.

From this announcement: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2023/06/canadas-tech-talent-strategy.html

Has someone met these conditions?
  • We will prioritize applications to ensure those supported by committed capital or endorsed by a business incubator that is also a member of Canada’s Tech Network will move to the front of the line for processing.
I just want to know if I have to submit something more to let IRCC know that my application is supported by this type of business incubator.
I submitted my application before this announcement.

Hello, We are group of 4 and applied for SUV last year one of our partner who applied after one month of my application got the AOR and I am still waiting. Any idea or any similar experiences someone has ? what is the time line when one partner received the AOR and others did not receive. Kindly update. Thanks
