Startup Visa Program Timeline

[Fiat@fifo]

Hi Fiat@fifo. Sad to hear about one of your members having their PR revoked! So that others can benefit from mistakes. Would you mind letting us know the reasons for revoke? Was it due to them providing misinformation to IRCC? After how long of receiving the PR, was it revoked?

To maintain Permanent Resident (PR) status in Canada, an individual must be physically present in the country for at least 730 days (equivalent to 2 years) within any given 5-year period. In 2014, he failed to meet this residency requirement, resulting in the loss of his PR status. Consequently, the authorities issued a deportation order. As a result, he is prohibited from re-entering Canada unless he applies for and receives an Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC).

Hi there
One of us resides in Canada and all you mentioned already done ( tax, bank account, trade registration…)
Two of us received the third ADR one in November 24, another one in December.
They were asked for proof of residence in Canada and some questions about what they have done so far to improve our business.
Another ADR was about updating a form, and asking about qualifications and skills in relation to her role in business.
And prove of sufficient financial resources to support business in Canada

Btw,we provided business progress report in first ADR in April 2024

Hi Nima

Did you or any of your team asked for ADR after receiving Pre Arrival Letter? As I know it's rare to receive ADR after receiving PAL.

We are a team of 4, and it’s only me recived PAL in September 2024, no others.
These two ADRs were sent to my teammates without PAL.
