Hi! I'm from Brazil and I have a vlog ("DanielFragaBR" Youtube channel) since 2010 and I make videos about politics, I do interviews, news analysis etc. My vlog has more than 60.000 subscribers, more than 10 million views and it keeps growing.

I want to immigrate to Canada as a self-employed "cyberjournalist", as described here:

www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2011/ViewAllTitles.aspx?val=5&val1=5123

"Cyberjournalist" is a subdivision of a journalist allowed in the self-employed immigration process.

www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2011/Profile.aspx?val=5&val1=5123

which is allowed in the "Self-employed" process:

cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/business/self-employed/apply-who.asp

www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2011/Occupations.aspx?val=5

If I proof I have enough money to maintain myself in Canada, do I have a chance to immigrate this way?

Thanks.

Ps: is there somebody here who immigrated to Canada as a journalist, more specifically as a "cyberjournalist"?

So what is exactly considered a "cyber journalist"? There's no description in the site.

If you meet all of the criteria then you can certainly apply. However none of us here can tell you if you will be approved or not. Posts related to the self-employment stream can be found in the following section of this forum:

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/business-immigration-b7.0/

I would recommend that you post any further questions you have there. There are very few people applying through the self employment stream on this forum - so I think it's unlikely you're going to find someone who has applied as a cyber journalist and can tell you about their experiences.
