BC Entrepreneur Program

[dezzy_d]

Hi,

I have been looking into migrating to BC, under the entrepreneur program, and had a couple of questions:

1. I plan to start the business with my wife, and I'm not sure if this visa would allow us both to work in the business we will be setting up?

2. I see that real estate development is not a permitted option, but would a construction company be legitimate?


I appreciate any help or comments you may have.

Thanks
Dez

The answer to 1st question is yes she can work with you or individually. But keep in mind you have to give a job to a local person also or what ever you have given details in your form.
