The Québec Self-Employed Worker Program targets individuals with the experience, skills, and financial capacity to create their own employment by practicing a profession or trade in Québec. This program is ideal for entrepreneurs, freelancers, artists, and skilled tradespeople who wish to establish themselves in Québec's unique cultural and economic landscape.
We develop comprehensive business plans specifically tailored to the requirements of Québec's Self-Employed Worker Program. Our expertise includes demonstrating your professional qualifications, proving the viability of your self-employment project, and showcasing how your skills will contribute to Québec's cultural or economic development—all while addressing the province's specific French language requirements and cultural context.
The Québec Self-Employed Worker Program requires a business plan that demonstrates not only the viability of your professional project but also your understanding of Québec unique cultural and linguistic context. A generic business plan will not address the specific requirements of this program.
At Business Venture Canada, we specialize in developing plans that align with Québec expectations for self-employed workers:
Professional Qualifications: Clearly demonstrating your experience and expertise in your field. Financial Self-Sufficiency: Proving you have sufficient funds to establish yourself and your family. Market Understanding: Showing knowledge of your industry's landscape in Québec. Cultural Integration: Addressing how you will adapt to Québec's French-speaking environment. Contribution to Québec: Explaining how your skills will benefit the province's cultural or economic development.
Common questions about self-employment immigration to Québec
To qualify, you must: have at least two years of experience as self-employed in your profession or trade; possess minimum net assets of CAD $100,000 (if settling outside Montréal) or CAD $200,000 (if settling in Montréal); intend to practice your profession in Québec; and score sufficient points in Québec's selection grid, which includes factors like education, experience, age, language skills, and your connection to Québec.
While not always an official requirement, demonstrating French language ability significantly strengthens your application. Québec prioritizes French-speaking immigrants, and showing at least intermediate French proficiency (level B1/B2) will greatly improve your chances of selection.
The program accepts a wide range of professions including but not limited to: artists, writers, consultants, tradespeople, therapists, designers, and other professionals who work independently. Your profession must be legal in Québec and you must meet any regulatory requirements for practicing it in the province.
You must demonstrate sufficient funds to support yourself and your family members for at least the first three months after your arrival. The current requirements are approximately CAD $3,400 for a single applicant, plus additional amounts for family members. You must also show proof of assets as mentioned above.
