Micro-Loans Program

Are you looking for money to start a micro-business, upgrade your skills, or recertify in a trade or occupation?

The Mirco-Loans Program offers three types of loans to help individuals with different needs:

Back to Work Loans:
Support individuals who had a career or work specialty in their home country and wish to work in a similar field in Canada, but require skills upgrading or certification to do so.

With These Hands Loans:
For equipment and tools to help individuals enter a trade or profession, and for self-employment program graduates intending to work as self-employed service providers (e.g. massage therapists, consultants or carpenters).

Peer Lending (Circle Lending):
For a group of peers who all launch micro-businesses, network with and support each other, and provide monthly opportunities to share business-development ideas.

Micro-loans range from $500 to $5,000.
