The Quebec Immigrant Investor Program is now open to new applications.<\/span><\/p>\n

Quebec is accepting a total of 1,900 applications in this new intake period, which runs until March 15, 2019.<\/p>\n

A maximum of 1,235 applications will be accepted from China (including Hong Kong and Macau).<\/p>\n

The popular program is the only provincial immigration stream that allows applicants to obtain permanent residence through a passive investment.<\/p>\n

This means that candidates are only required to make an investment in Quebec for a five-year term.<\/p>\n

Modified criteria<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s important to note that the program\u2019s\u00a0eligibility criteria<\/a>\u00a0have been revised, effective August 2.<\/p>\n

The main changes are higher net asset and investment requirements, which have been raised to CAD $2 million and CAD $1.2 million, respectively.<\/p>\n

The previous requirements were net assets of CAD $1.6 million and an investment of CAD $800,000.<\/p>\n

The investment must be for a five-year term with a subsidiary of Investissement Quebec and the investment agreement must be made through a financial intermediary authorized to participate in the QIIP.<\/p>\n

The investment of CAD $1.2 million is guaranteed by the Quebec government and will be returned in full after five years.<\/p>\n

Among other criteria is the requirement that all interested candidates must obtain a passing score under Quebec\u2019s points system. To calculate your potential points under the QIIP scoring system, use the\u00a0Quebec Immigrant Investor Program (QIIP) calculator.<\/a><\/p>\n
