The below summarized process is based on the requirements that need to be followed for a Permanent Residency application of a foreign investor thru Canadian Federal Authorities. Arton Capital/PWM Capital has outlined the below procedures by combining current timelines of local government institutions as well as the actual process our clients have experienced.
The procedure can be broken down into 4 basic steps, which the main applicant will have to go through. Some of them require his/her involvement; others are performed by Arton Capital/PWM Capital on the grounds of the power of attorney(s) given by the main applicant. All of the steps are dependent on the successful completion of the previous step.
