Houston Market Context

Why Houston applicants choose business immigration.

An energy, engineering, and healthcare hub, with strong representation among skilled worker and Intra-Company Transfer applicants working for multinational employers.

Business Immigration in Houston

Houston's energy sector has a long history of cross-border corporate structures, making Intra-Company Transfer one of the most common business immigration routes for applicants based here — particularly into Alberta.

Business immigration pathways reward demonstrated management experience and sufficient net worth over any single credential — which is why local business context matters more here than for most other pathways. Mahyar Afzali, RCIC, works directly with clients throughout the process — from initial eligibility assessment through submission and follow-through — regardless of where in the US you're based.

Eligibility Snapshot
3–4 years business or senior management experience
Net worth threshold varies by stream (typically CAD $300K–$1M+)
IELTS B1 or above preferred
Genuine intent to actively manage the business in Canada

The Consulate General of Canada in Houston serves the Gulf Coast region; applications are processed centrally by IRCC regardless of where you file from.
