One more clarification, by what date you have to land in Canada, have they given a date
Startup Visa Program Timeline
- Thread starter deenfae
- Start date
Thank you, I read somewhere that Medical has to be valid at the time of landing, may be IRCC extended the validity of your medical till August 2026
Hey, thanks for sharing your timeline. Are you applying inland or outland, and how many people are in your project? Also curious if your project is already generating revenue.
What do you guys think about this H1 2025 report from IRCC https://www.ircc.canada.ca/opendata-donneesouvertes/data/EN_ODP-PR-ProvImmCat.xlsx
The data doesn't match what was previously shared in https://meurrensonimmigration.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/SUV-Stats.pdf
The new report states that in the first 6 months of 2025, they approved:
- 635 self-employed applications
- 1180 startup visa applications.
Based on this data, the 2025 quota was 91% filled a month ago, with most of these PRs issued in Q1.
However, the number of approved PRs for 2023 in this report doesn't match previous reports.

If this is genuine, than matter of concern for 2021 paper application with no priority DOs.
"Based on this data, the 2025 quota was 91% filled a month ago, with most of these PRs issued in Q1."
And Non - Priority designated Organization application will be processed only after Priority DO’s as per instructions from Ministerial.
