    Make Sure to be Supported by Designated Organizations for Start Up Visas

    You must demonstrate (with a commitment certificate and a letter of support) that your company is backed by a designated organization to meet the eligibility requirements. These records, which will detail your agreement with one or more specified groups, are crucial to your start-up visa application. There will be no requirement for applicants to spend their own money, unlike federal and provincial investor programs where they must.

    Those who are eligible must instead raise a minimum of $200,000 from a Canadian venture capital fund or $75,000 from a Canadian seed investor, as determined by the government of Canada. No investment money is required if the applicant is accepted into a reputable Canadian business incubator.
