About British Columbia

Investing in British Columbia

Canada is the least costly place to do business according to a study comparing business costs in 11 industrialized countries in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific by KPMG LLP.

Their study measured 27 cost components - such as labour, taxes and utilities - applied to business operations. The research included an analysis of these costs in 98 cities worldwide.  In addition to the low cost of doing business, Canada's real estate market has seen a significant increase in value, with British Columbia seeing the highest gain of all provinces.  Even so, residents of the UK will still find equivalent housing in British Columbia at a lower cost given the very favourable currency conversion rate.

The BC PNP Program

The most important advantage the BCPNP program has over all other programs is the speed with which you can gain entry into Canada.  You can land in Canada with your family to begin working on implementing your business plan within 4 to 6 months of the date your initiate the immigration process with us.

After meeting the requirements of the BCPNP program, a separate expedited federal application will be submitted that will grant you and your family permanent resident visas in the shortest possible time, while you continue to live and work in BC.

Our past clients

When we work with you on your BCPNP application we go beyond just filling out your forms.  We work with you day in and day out on every aspect of your business plan and documentation as well as thoroughly prepare you for your interview here in British Columbia.

Secondly when you arrive in BC for your interview, we will have one of our staff personally pick you up from your hotel downtown and take you to the BCPNP office for the interview.  Once there we will attend the interview with you and be right by your side for the entire duration of the interview.

One of our recent clients was working with a tight deadline because the business she was planning on opening here in BC was very time sensitive.  With the help of the very adept and attentive staff at the British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program office, we were able to get a final approval for our client on her case in less than 3 months.

Please note that this time is not meant to be indicative of everyone's processing time, but was chosen as an example of how quickly this program can work for you when conditions are ideal.

Realistically one can expect the entire process to complete in under 6 months.

The BCPNP Program Requirements

There are two categories under which you can apply for the BCPNP program.  Both routes are quick, but one route requires a smaller investment than the other.

If you plan on living outside of Greater Vancouver:

You must have legally acquired a net worth of at least CAD $400,000. (Currency Exchange Here), and must be willing to invest CAD $200,000 in a company outside of Greater Vancouver, BC.  You would still be working only an hour away from downtown Vancouver (pictured above).

If you plan on living within Greater Vancouver :

You must have legally acquired a net worth of at least CAD $800,000. (Currency Exchange Here), and must be willing to invest CAD $500,000 in a company in the Greater Vancouver area. In addition you would have to hire 3 full time employees.  This option would take the same amount of time but would give you the freedom to live wherever you wish in BC.
