Self Employed Program
This program is for foreign nationals who can create their own employment, by contributing athletically, culturally, or artistically to Canada’s job market. People with sufficient funds and relevant work experience can apply for the Self-employed Program. There is no minimum net worth and/or investment requirement for this program. However, self-employed applicants need to demonstrate that they have sufficient funds to settle in Canada along with their dependents and finance the work for which their selection is based.

How Candour Immigration Consultancy Inc. can help?
- Generally self-employed people are not directly employed with an employer and therefore, it becomes a big challenge (in terms of documentation) to demonstrate that they meet the minimum experience requirements of the self-employed program. We help self-employed people in gathering the documentation as per their profile.
- The self-employed program seems to be quite easy, but preparing a good application is a big challenge. The onus is on the applicant to prove that they meet the program criteria and will be able to create their own employment in Canada. We prepare the application based on our client’s profile and comprehensive research to prove that how they will settle themselves in Canadian job market?
