Our FAQ contains frequently asked questions concerning the applicability and the requirements of the Act. If you are not familiar with the contents of this site, you will want to read this. The Investment Canada Act and Regulations The Act and Regulations prescribe the legal responsibilities of non-Canadians investing in Canada and the information which they are required to submit. Thresholds for Review (last update January 23, 2006) If your investment is subject to the Act, you must submit either a Notification or an Application for Review. The thresholds change annually and determine which form you must submit. Once you have determined which one to use, you may access these forms to submit your information.
