In the spring of 2011, the Government of Prince Edward Island introduced new streams to the PEIPNP which continue to build on the Program's successful record of attracting business people and skilled workers to immigrate and settle in Prince Edward Island.

Business Impact Category has three streams from which an applicant can choose:

• 100% Ownership Stream
• Partial Ownership Stream
• Work Permit Stream

Business Impact Category

Applicants may apply directly to the Business Impact Category or use an approved Island Agent. Any applicant using a paid representative must use an approved Island Agent. Failure to submit your file through an Island Agent when using a paid representative will result in an immediate decline for nomination.

The Island Agent will be available to assist the applicant throughout the immigration process. This assistance will begin with the application and will end when the applicant is settled as a resident of Prince Edward Island. Throughout this time frame, the applicant will be able to rely on their Island Agent to make their integration into the Prince Edward Island business community more seamless.

Bether Capital PEI Inc., a sister company to Bether Capital Inc. is one of only seven Island Agents approved by the government of Prince Edward Island.
