The new Investor definition drops the current
requirement that the net worth be created by the Investor's own
endeavours.
The new regulation defines an Investor to mean:
An immigrant who:
- has business experience
- has a net worth of at least C$1,600,000
- indicates to the Minister, in writing, and establishes to the satisfaction of a visa officer, that they have made an investment of C$800,000.
