If you’re an artist or cultural professional dreaming of establishing yourself in Canada, our clients’ journey from Hungary can inspire you. This success story showcases how two talented professionals navigated the Canadian immigration system to bring their artistic passions to a new home.
In Brief
Our clients, a dancer/choreographer and a photographer from Hungary had built successful careers sharing their love for the arts. They envisioned relocating to Canada to continue their work as self-employed instructors, enriching the local cultural scene with their unique blend of dance and photography classes.
- Timeline:
- March 2024: The clients’ company was established in British Columbia, Canada.
- June 26, 2024: Work permit application submitted.
- July 3, 2024: Work permits approved.
- Available Funds: $199,804.
- Industry: Dance and Photography.
- Location: A small city in British Columbia.
The Challenge of Self-Employed Immigration
Their goal was clear, but the path was not. Canada had temporarily paused its self-employed immigration program, typically the most straightforward route for individuals like our clients. Additionally, they wanted to embark on this venture as equal partners, sharing both the investment and responsibilities.
The Solution for the Arts Professionals
We identified an alternative pathway: applying for work permits as professionals in art and culture. We meticulously crafted a business plan emphasizing their ability to contribute to Canada’s cultural landscape, showcasing their complementary skills and the unique value their partnership would bring.
The Outcome
After months of preparation, their work permit applications were submitted on June 26, 2024. Remarkably, they were approved just over a week later, on July 3, 2024. This swift success underscored the strength of their application and the clear benefits they offered to their chosen community.
Key Factors for Success Business Immigration
- Alignment with Canada’s Needs: They demonstrated how their artistic talents aligned with Canada’s desire for cultural and creative contributions.
- Strong Partnership: Their equal partnership showcased financial stability and a shared vision, making their application stand out.
- Proven Track Record: Their accomplishments in their respective fields further solidified the value they would bring to Canada.
