Questions about financial assistance?
FAQ
Aware that many questions may arise in this context, we hope to address as many as possible in this FAQ. If, however, you cannot find the appropriate answer, we invite you to contact us.
How will financial support requests be prioritized?
All requests are processed in the order in which they are received, with rigor and diligence. We ensure that each file is analyzed as quickly as possible and placed on a waiting list if necessary.
How long does it take to process a request?
The timeline may vary depending on the volume received. We aim to process requests within a reasonable timeframe and will inform businesses as soon as a decision is made.
If my request is accepted, when will I receive confirmation?
Once your file is validated and funds are confirmed to be available, an official communication will be sent to you by email.
Are all Visées program activities stopping?
No. For now, only new requests for financial assistance are being placed on a waiting list. Matching and personalized support activities continue, and additional initiatives will be announced this winter.
Can I still submit a request for skills and needs analysis support?
Yes. The support service for skills and needs analysis remains available. Our advisors continue to assist businesses in their strategic planning and skills development, regardless of funding availability.
Is the skills and needs analysis support free of charge?
Yes. This support is offered at no cost to eligible businesses.
If I submit a request for skills and needs analysis support, does it guarantee funding?
No.
Why continue promoting the skills and needs analysis support?
Because it is a high value-added service for businesses: it helps them better identify their skill needs, guides them toward appropriate training partners, and strengthens their attractiveness and performance—even without immediate financial support.
What is the difference between a request for skills and needs analysis support and a request for financial assistance?
A request for skills and needs analysis support aims to obtain help from an advisor to assess the company’s needs, establish an action plan, and identify the most relevant training.
A request for financial assistance is used to obtain a subsidy to cover part of the costs associated with this training. These are two separate processes.
Why clarify the distinction between skills and needs analysis support and financial assistance now?
Because several businesses confuse these two steps. Given the high volume of requests, it is essential to ensure a clear understanding: skills and needs analysis support is an ongoing service, whereas funding depends on a limited budget.
