Wei’s strategy

What Wei’s sample assessment suggests doing first, and what could improve the picture. Drawn from the assessment alone, with no promise of a result.

Being eligible isn’t the same as being chosen.

Meeting a provincial stream’s minimums doesn’t mean an invitation. British Columbia invites only its highest-scoring Entrepreneur Immigration registrants: in 2026 each Base stream draw invited between 7 and 15 people. Official source

Prioritized actions

What to do first

Every action comes from the sample assessment. Doing them improves the picture; it doesn’t promise a result. They are worded as the sample report words them to Wei, so the key dates, documents and missing information they mention are in the full sample report on step 02.

The paths compared

Every path the sample examined

Side by side, in the order the sample ranked them, with what it found for each.

PathWhere it standsWhat the sample found
BC Provincial Nominee Program: Entrepreneur Immigration Base streamWorth exploring4 of 4 requirements checked appear to be met.
Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program: Business Investor Stream, Entrepreneur PathwayWorth exploring3 of 3 requirements checked appear to be met.
BC Provincial Nominee Program: Entrepreneur Immigration Regional streamWe need a bit more info2 of 3 requirements checked appear to be met. Still to confirm: Regional stream: new business in a B.C. participating community, with that community's referral after an exploratory visit.
Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program: former Entrepreneur StreamClosed to new applicantsBased on your answers, Ontario is not an option for business immigration now: all Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program streams except Ontario Workforce Priority are closed, and that stream needs an Ontario job offer (or self-employed physician status).

In the made-up story: Rather than waiting on a paused program, Wei compared the provincial options that are open today, then booked a consultation to choose one with a lawyer. This is an illustrative ending, not a real client’s outcome.
