Hi JDI,

Some common questions about business on ADR1, such as: CV and contribution of each members; how did members come and start business; any meetings with member of investor....
I think the list of requests varies depending on each business and officer...

Has anyone heard concerns the MTA SUV program no longer meets IRCC requirements? An Immigration Advisor mentioned that they are seeing multiple rejections for groups who previously received LOS due to deficiencies in their program.

Did you got LOS from MTA? I am curious to know about MTA's current position with IRCC. Which immigration advisor mentioned that about MTA. Could you please provide link or email number of that advisor? That will help me a little.

"While I'm not familiar with what MTA stands for in this context, I can share some information about recent changes to the Start-Up Visa (SUV) program. The program has undergone several reforms recently, with mixed impacts on applicants:



Positive changes:

1. Work permit relaxation: The program now grants work permits to all applicants, not just those considered essential. This is a significant benefit for the all team.



Restrictive changes:

1. LOS limitations: Every incubator or Angel Investor are now restricted to granting only 10 Letters of Support (LOS), down from an unlimited number previously. This change aims to reduce backlogs and encourage choices that are more selective by incubators.



2. Application caps: IRCC has introduced annual limits on SUV applications:

- 2025: 2,000 applications

- 2026: 1,000 applications

- 2027: 1,000 applications

3. There also many other changes you can goggle to see details.



These caps will likely make the program more competitive.



Regarding IRCC requirements, while I haven't heard specific concerns about the program no longer meeting them, the changes and the Immigration Advisor's comment about multiple rejections suggest that the criteria for approval may have become more stringent. It's possible that what was previously acceptable may no longer meet current standards.

MTA stands for Biomedical Commercialization Canada Inc. (operating as Manitoba Technology Accelerator). Is an incubator.
I have a question for you. Whare did you get Application caps: IRCC has introduced annual limits on SUV applications:

- 2025: 2,000 applications

- 2026: 1,000 applications

- 2027: 1,000 applications

As far my finding these are the currently announced immigration lavel plan on federal business category which significantly reduced the terget of SUV PR approval rate which is a big negative impact and expand the processing time significantly..please follow the link and look for federal business. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/supplementary-immigration-levels-2025-2027.html
