In this post, I help you gain Canadian Immigration under the Self-Employment group. Read the following article carefully and then decide if you qualify these requirements. It saves all the time for both the applicant and the inspecting officer.
Who is Entitled to Canadian Immigration in the Self-Employed Stream?
Only the following three groups can participate under the self-employment category:
1. Self-employed in cultural occupations
The words cultural occupations mean many jobs. It has artists, filmmakers, illustrators, musicians, journalists, and more. ‘Cultural occupations’ also means associated workers like designers, choreographers, and directors and more.
2. Self-employed athletes
Apart from the athletes, this group also has trainers and coaches. To be precise cultural occupations and athletics are for established professionals with significant experience and a lengthy record of supporting themselves in the activity.
Artists and those working in athletes should be at the world-class level. Anything lower lessens your chances to be successful under the self-employed group.
3. Self-employment in buying and controlling of a farm.
This is a difficult group to be successful. You should have relevant experience in farming and demonstrate that you possess the abilities to succeed in financially backing yourself and your dependents by farming in Canada.
The self-employment group is not for applicants who want to gain self-employment in groups mentioned above.
For farming, CIC or Citizenship and Immigration Canada need to see a multi-tasking applicant with the following skills:
- Ability to deal with latest farming problems
- Abilities to deal with machinery and every aspect of the modern farm competence in technology
- Great knowledge in farming techniques
- Great knowledge in markets for animal produce or grains
- You should possess evidence of financially backing your dependents and yourself by farming
