Millionaires Wait in Queue for 12 years -

Canada Investor Immigration

  A news story in the Toronto Sun confirms that Canada's investor program continues to face a large backlog.     There are about 22,491 millionaire investors worldwide who've applied and are waiting to come to Canada.  This is as per Jim Versteegh, a federal immigration program manager at the Canadian consulate in Hong Kong.     It will take about  12 years for visa officers to process the backlog of cases. Canada's investor immigration backlog keeps millionaires out of Canada. "More than 22,500 foreign millionaires are waiting abroad to resettle in Canada, bringing with them more than $9 billion to help cash-strapped Ottawa, immigration officials say." The current Canadian investor program requires a networth of C$1,600,000 now. The investors who qualify for this program would very much qualify for the following programs -

1. The United States EB5 program   - Processing time is 8 to 12 months.
2. The United Kingdom Investor program - Processing time averages 6 months.
3. The St. Kitts opportunity - Processing time averages 4 months.
4. The European Investor Immigration opportunity - Processing time averages 4 months.
5. The Dominica citizenship program - Processing time averages 3 months.

Why shouldn't these investor applicants look at other countries ? If and when they want to - there are several options on the Investor Visa Network website at InvestorVisa.net.
