Entrepreneurs for establishing businesses in British Columbia. This is in
smaller communities that have a population lesser than 75,000. These are facing
acute shortages of skills with shrinking labour markets and aging populations.
The net worth
and investment requirements for the EIRP are half of those specified under the
mainstream British Columbia Entrepreneur.
Under
Entrepreneur Immigration Regional Pilot candidates must invest $ 100,000. Their
net worth must be $300,000 and create 1 job for Canadian PR holder or Citizen, as quoted by the CIC News. This
program is only for overseas Entrepreneurs who intend to start a new business.
