Canada Startup Visa Experience

[shachaudhary]

I applied for my Canada PR via Startup Visa Program and when I was applying I was not able to find any information about the program and how to apply.
I have now successfully applied through the program and will be happy to share my experience if anyone has any questions.

How long did your case processing take if you don’t mind me asking? I’ve heard it lasting for over 3 years and all the cases I saw in a public tracker from 2020-2021 are still in early processing stages

So Work Permit took about 5 months. PR is still in process, I have also heard that its takes almost 3 years. My understanding is that not a lot of people go through this program, processing times might not be too accurate. For me personally, 20 - 30 months is not a problem since I can move with my family and start working in Canada.
