Q1: No I didn't submit a business plan. I just provided a synopsis of what I would be doing once I arrived.
Q2: I didn't find this information anywhere but I expect this process to last over a year anyway. Processing time last time I checked was 35 months.
Q3. It's the same as mentioned on their website for FSW for 1 person, 2 persons, 3 persons and so on and so forth.

Helo,
Kindly I want to ask, did you apply by your self or with the help of an agent?
and did you need a business plan?
can you please share details of your application?
Thank you
Yes, they accepted but when they asked for all additional documents later on, I included the business plan then because that was all submitted online. If I'd included all the additional documents they requested with the paper application, it would have been over 100 pages long.
They don't actually request for a business plan. However, the onus of proving you know what you're doing and have a plan once you land is on you. Including a business plan bolsters your application.
If I remember correctly, the request was to prove that I have a plan to become self-employed once I arrive in Canada. The business plan supports that request. To summarize, they didn't specifically ask but it doesn't hurt your chances of success.
