Canada admitted only 180 self-employed immigrants in 2020
The Self-Employed Persons Program (SEPP) is aimed solely at talented foreign artists and athletes. Prior to March 2018, there was also the farm management stream in the Self-Employed Persons Program, but IRCC decided to cancel it. Currently, this immigration stream is a great pathway for world-class level sportsmen and self-employed persons whose main work is such cultural activities as music, art, writing, etc. The processing time for SEPP is now 23 months. As of June 30, 2020, Canada granted PR to 180 self-employed persons. Last year, Canada welcomed 870 immigrants in this program.
