Which artistic and creative talents can apply for immigration

Self-employed immigrants are a category of business immigration designed primarily for athletes, artists, and farm operators. The basic requirements for this type of immigration are: relevant professional experience as required by law, willingness to support themselves and their families through self-employment in Canada, and the ability and willingness to make significant contributions to Canadian culture, sports and agricultural operations.

In terms of experience requirements, athletes and artists must have at least two years of experience participating in world-class events or cultural events, or at least two years of experience in self-employment, or at least one year of experience participating in world-class events or cultural events, and at least one year of experience in self-employment. Farm operators must have at least two years of experience in farm management.

The experience of cultural and sports activities is broadly defined in the interpretation of the law, including not only those who are directly engaged in cultural and artistic services and sports projects, such as teachers, performers, columnists, athletes, etc., but also those who provide support for cultural and sports activities, such as stage designers, sound professionals, directors, screenwriters, drama managers, sports coaches, etc., as well as business personnel engaged in cultural and sports management, such as troupe managers, agents, sports team leaders, etc.

Making an important contribution to Canada's cultural, athletic, and agricultural operations, for artists and athletes, is becoming self-employed in Canada and engaging in cultural and sporting activities related to their profession and experience. For example, if a teacher goes to a relatively remote Canadian town to engage in self-employed work related to **, for that small town where there is a shortage of teachers, the arrival of **teacher and the **teaching services he provides** is an important contribution to Canadian culture. For a farm operator, it's about buying and operating a farm in Canada.

The ability to be self-employed is not only manifested in the knowledge and experience of relevant professions, but also in the fact that the applicant must have a certain economic strength to meet the necessary capital investment needs for self-employment, which is particularly important for farm operators. In addition, the ability to develop markets and exchange information, as well as the ability to use computers and networks, is also used as a reference for assessing whether an applicant is self-employed.

A very interesting phenomenon is that in Canada's current immigration law system, there is no mandatory mechanism for self-employed business immigrants to check whether they are actually self-employed after obtaining permanent resident status. In other words, after the immigration is successful, there is no relevant department to check whether the applicant is actually engaged in cultural and sports activities or buys and operates a farm according to the original application intention. This is completely different from the federal entrepreneur immigration, who must be released from the condition to obtain full permanent resident status within three years of becoming a permanent resident.

If you have achieved something in the field of artistic creation, you can apply to go to those countries as an artist. The so-called achievements include holding exhibitions (which have a social effect, not the kind that no one knows about), publishing works, and making achievements in the art industry (very respected by industry insiders, or slightly famous).

Otherwise, you might as well apply for highly skilled migration. Just give some proofs and get enough points.
