Immigrant Investor Program: Facilitators

Although it is not a requirement, we recommend that you use the services of one of the approved facilitators listed on our website. These facilitators are financial institutions, approved by CIC, that are members of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC).

Through CIC, participating provinces pay a commission to facilitators to market the Immigrant Investor Program (IIP) and to assist you with the administrative requirements of making and ultimately redeeming your $400,000 investment. Each facilitator has all the necessary forms in order to make your investment.

CIC has set up administrative processes to support the pledging of your investment as security for a loan. Your facilitator will have a variety of financing options available in the event that you wish to finance your investment.

To contact one of the banks or other financial institutions that have been chosen by CIC to help immigrant investors, please see the list of approved financial institutions below.
