Quebec Immigrant Investor Program

The Quebec Immigrant Investor Program requires provincial selection and a subsequent federal permanent residence application. Current conditions include at least $2 million in legally acquired net assets, qualifying management experience, the required educational credential, and spoken French at level 7 on the Quebec scale. A Quebec-authorized intermediary must arrange a $1 million five-year investment and a separate $200,000 financial contribution. A qualifying stay in Quebec is also required before selection. Applications may currently be submitted at any time, without an annual intake cap.

The $25,000 + HST legal fee covers the stated provincial and federal application work. Investment, contribution, government charges, and other disclosed third-party costs are separate. This is a referral service; the responsible lawyer must confirm eligibility and the Quebec-specific representation requirements before accepting the matter.

The Quebec selection stage can take 12–24+ months after application intake closes. Federal IRCC processing after the CSQ is issued typically adds another 12–18 months. Total timeline from application to permanent residence is commonly 2–4 years, subject to MIFI and IRCC processing times.
Stage 1 — Province of Quebec (MIFI). Stage 2 — Federal (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada / IRCC).
