March 9, 2018 – Candidates with advanced intermediate French language skills can still apply for the successful Quebec Immigrant Investor Program (QIIP).

March 31 is the deadline for these candidates to submit their applications to the popular passive investment immigration program. They must be able to demonstrate an intermediate to advanced level of French language proficiency through an approved standardized language test.

For all other candidates, the QIIP application period closed on February 23, 2018.

The QIIP is the only passive investment program of its kind in Canada and the second largest in North America after the EB-5 program in the United States.

Under the 2017/2018 subscription period, Quebec is accepting a maximum of 1,900 applications including up to 1,330 from China, Hong Kong and Macao and the balance of 570 applications from elsewhere.
