Overview
Business immigration changed significantly in 2025 and 2026. The federal Start-Up Visa and Self-Employed programs are no longer accepting new applications, and some provinces have closed their entrepreneur streams, including Ontario. The routes that remain depend on your capital, experience, nationality and where you plan to settle. We assess the provincial entrepreneur streams that are open — such as British Columbia's — alongside work permits for business owners and executives, including intra-company transfers, CUSMA investor permits and significant-benefit work permits, and then build the file for the route that fits.
