Startup Visa Program Timeline
- Thread starter deenfae
- Start date
Yup, I had a bunch of friends contact me now that I am here. I showed them the processing time and they stopped asking more questionsNow processing time is 31 months
Mine is July 2020 and no news. I assume that the majority of (Jan 2020 and before) cases were completed by IRCC.

I have one question related to POF for Non-Essential members.
Do we need to maintain funds listed in below link for period of 6-months before applying PR application with LOS ?
Kindly if anyone can clarify.

No we do not need.
However the fund is requested to show before landing.
Hi StrangerSUV,
"The officer must notify the applicant that their case is being sent for a peer review"

Hi everyone,
As Swaroop mentioned above "PR card will take 4 months"
In case I currently have a visitor visa which is valid in ~10 years, in the meanwhile waiting for PR card issued I wonder if we are able to go back then come to Canada again by our Visitor Visa or the Visitor Visa will be deleted as soon as the PR card issued?
Looking forwards to your advice
Cheers
Kai
Hi Kai,
You are misunderstanding btw PR card and VISA.
Swaroop has landed in Canada as a pernemant residence under the confirmation of PR visa, and he has to wait for 4 months for his card (card here like the ID card). He is PR status now with or without PR card.
For your case, yes, you can land in Canada under your visitor visa to wait for the final decision on your application. But you cannot do anything except the visitor.
Cheers.

Hi,
Yes, as Katie's advice, we do not need to maintain the POF all the time since POF is just the proof that you have enough money to cover all the costs of your family during the first 6 months according to Canada living costs after arriving.
However, please keep in mind that POF will be most likely requested to show whenever IRCC request for another additional docs and the deadline is often very short around 5-7 days. Therefore, you have better keep this minimum amount in your bank if it is possible or you can handle it case by case depending on your cash flow.
Cheers

Hi,
In the form 1295 in the section: DETAILS OF INTENDED WORK IN CANADA there are some options, which one should be use for work permit under SUV
1- Exemption from Labour Market Impact Assessment
2- Start-up Business class
if select "Start-up Business class" offer of employment number will be disabled.
