What is the cost of investing in immigration to Canada? ?

According to the report of Ming Pao in Canada, Canadian Immigration Minister Connie confirmed on the 25th that the Immigration Department is considering increasing the investment of investment immigrants to 6.5438+0.5 million yuan, and at the same time, following the example of Australia, New Zealand, the United States and the United Kingdom, investment immigrants only obtain temporary permanent resident status upon arrival in Hong Kong. Only after a few years, they can prove that they continue to invest in Canada and they will be granted permanent resident status.

Connie said that it is estimated that the new regulations will be implemented by the end of next year. He said that the reform of investment immigration rules is still in the stage of soliciting opinions, but it is certain that the previous rule that investment immigrants only need to invest 800,000 yuan in Canada will not work. He pointed out that investment immigrant applicants often borrow the investment amount, and after five years of becoming Canadian citizens in Canada, they withdraw the investment amount.

At present, the funds invested in immigrants are transferred from the federal government to the provinces for economic development projects, but some provinces cannot use the funds effectively because they have to repay the principal after five years. In the future, we can consider following the example of Britain, forcing funds to buy domestic bonds, creating jobs, or directly confiscating the investment amount. He believes: "The old law cannot create employment opportunities for the country!"

He said that at present, Australia, New Zealand and the United States stipulate that the investment paid by investment immigrants is at least 6,543,800 yuan, and that in Britain it is 6,543,800 yuan. "Canada asking price is too low. Some people said with a smile that the investment in immigrant seats should be auctioned and the highest bidder will get it. There are also immigration lawyers who point out that Canada (investment immigration seats) is worth at least 1.5 million RMB! However, the Immigration Department has not yet made a final decision. "

Connie said that a recent poll said that there are a large number of millionaires in the world who want to immigrate to Canada, so why not sell them? He said that before the regulatory reform was completed, the Immigration Department would continue to process old applications. The number of new applicants was frozen at 700 last year, and it is estimated that this year will not be more than in previous years.

He pointed out that the current backlog of investment immigration applications is as high as 23,000, and the waiting time is expected to be as long as 8 to 9 years. However, the Immigration Department has no intention of returning the backlog of investment immigration applications across the board, just like returning the old cases of old skilled immigrants. He thinks it is more reasonable to give priority to the applicants on the waiting list after the investment amount increases in the future.
