Hi, I intend to start a corporation in Canada. I understand that the corporation must have
at least half of its directors being Canadian citizens or permanent residents. This is
fine, as myself and my partner can start this corporation. It would indeed be possible for
me to do this if I have work authorisation, correct? Would the fact that I also already
run a successful Canadian corporation be counted if/when I later on decide to apply for PR
under individual/entreprenuer class? Any
hints/tips/comments/ideas/theories/philosophies/flames etc welcome.

First of all, if you want to run a business in Canada than it doesn't need to be an
corporation, it may be any other form like sole proprietorship, partnership, limited
partnership, etc. - but to be able to run it (read - work in your own business) you have
to be a Canadian resident. Employment Authorization allows you to work only for the
employer specified in your EA, so working in your business will not be legal. If you plan
to start a business in order to obtain EA and work in your own business then forget it -
it will be highly unlikely to obtain one.

Daniel, I would be surprised if already owning a Canadian business (if this were possible)
would have a positive effect on a future application for PR. After all, if this were the
case, people would be flocking to start a small business prior to their applications. I
certainly couldn't see CIC granting work authorisation based on a submission from your own
company. As I understand the Entrepreneur visa, starting or running a business is a
condition of the visa, not the other way round.

I am not sure about what it would do in terms of immigration for the fact that you are
already owning a company but I heard that people could apply for PR under Entreprenuer
class, however you would have to provide finanical report at least 5 years back for either
earning or deficit and also projection of your finanical gain and future goal and plan for
your company. It's almost like writing for a Grant, or if you may, writing a finanical
proprosal. Of course, all of the finanical statement have to be supported by legal
documents.
The finanical requirements are strick for Entreprenuer class immigration. If I were you, I
might as well work for other company of which occupation is listed on CIC Occupation List
to earn more points for future PR application purpose.

There may be tax advantages for such corporations. You would be best advised to consult
with a taxation specialist for the details. Otherwise, non-Canadians may wholly own
Canadian businesses.

That is correct. Additional information on this topic may be found at Campbell, Cohen's

Having a business in operation in Canada would certainly be to your advantage in a
subsequent business class application.

Hi Andrew, I was actually thinking of the Australian Working Holiday Program, as they
issue you an employment authorisation for one year on arrival at the port of entry.. I
dont know if you know, but would this allow one to work under their own business in
Canada? Thanks for all your help..

You have to check with Canadian visa post in Sydney to find out what jobs are not eligible
for AWHP first.
But regardless, if you are thinking about applying for PR under Entrepreneur category then
you must meet basic selection criteria for that class - proven successful business
experience and have enough net worth as well as cash available for your own business.
Working in your own business in Canada during 1 year AWHP program will hardly be a proof
of successful business experience.

The reason i ask this, is not so that I can use this business to obtain citizenship, but
to use it as a business enterprise, i just wondered if it would be considered in the
application

Hi Daniel,
As you have gathered from the responses received to your initial question, there may be an
advantage to being an owner of a Canadian company prior to applying for PR.
If you choose to go down this path, you may want to check out
http://www.CanadianImmigrant.com/business.htm to get an insider advantage and learn what
the ground realities are in setting up your type of business.
Good luck!
