he C11 Entrepreneur Work Permit is a unique pathway for entrepreneurs, self-employed individuals, and business owners who wish to establish or operate a business in Canada. Designed to attract business talent from around the world, the C11 program provides an opportunity to gain temporary residence while At Grupo Sineva, we help you navigate every step of the C11 process, ensuring your business goals align with Canadian requirements.
From business plan creation to compliance and application submission, our team is here to help you achieve your Canadian business and immigration goals.
Applicants should have a controlling interest in the business (typically at least 50%) and demonstrate active involvement in the operation and management of the company.
The business must show potential to bring economic, social, or cultural benefits to Canada, such as creating jobs for Canadians, driving innovation, or contributing to a specific industry.
A comprehensive business plan is essential. It should outline the business’s goals, target market, operational strategy, and projected economic impact in Canada.
Applicants should ideally have experience in their industry or sector, demonstrating the skills and expertise needed to successfully manage and grow the business in Canada.
Our experts will work with you to create a business plan that aligns with Canadian standards and highlights the benefits your business will bring to Canada. This plan will cover all essential details, including market analysis, financial projections, and job creation potential.
We handle the entire application process, from gathering documentation to filling out forms, ensuring accuracy and compliance with Canadian immigration requirements.
Our team provides ongoing support to ensure your business operates within Canadian regulations, setting you up for long-term success and potential pathways to permanent residency.
For those looking to transition to permanent residency, we offer consultations on additional immigration pathways such as the Express Entry system or Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) that may be available once your business is established.
Our internal preparation process—including consultation, collection of supporting documents, and drafting of forms or submissions—depends largely on how quickly the applicant provides the necessary materials. On average, assembling a complete and well-prepared application may take several weeks.
If an in-person appointment is required (such as biometrics or an interview), availability can vary depending on the visa application centre (VAC) or consular post. Some locations offer appointments within a few weeks, while others may experience backlogs or seasonal delays.
Once the application is submitted to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or through a visa post abroad, processing times vary based on application type and volume. In many cases, decisions are issued electronically. Approved applicants typically receive their work or study permit, or visa, shortly after a positive decision.
IRCC may issue a request for additional documents or clarification during the review process. While not always common, this can extend processing timelines. Our thorough preparation aims to minimize the risk of such requests by submitting a strong and complete file from the outset.
For applicants already inside Canada, applications for extensions or changes of status (e.g., employer-specific to open work permit) are processed by IRCC. In some cases, individuals may choose to use flagpoling at the U.S.-Canada border to receive same-day permit issuance, if eligible. Standard processing through IRCC can take several months, depending on the application type and current workloads.
I recommend their full relocation package for anyone serious about moving to the U.S.
