Host Family Referral Incentive Program

Note: This incentive is targetted specifically to prospective homestays located within the City of North Vancouver and the District of North Vancouver areas only.

Because we know that the best introduction to our services is through those currently hosting our students, FCI has initiated a limited-time referral incentive for existing FCI host families to refer prospective families to us.

Successfully refer a prospective host and earn $250!

How it works…

• The FCI host speaks to a neighbor, family member, or friend about hosting an FCI international student and receives that person’s approval to send us their contact details;
• The FCI host uses our online referral form to send us their name and the contact details for the referred family;
• FCI staff then reach out to the referred family to explain the screening process and answer any additional questions they may have. Once satisfied the family may be suitable for consideration we will have them complete our online Host Family Application Form and then arrange for a site visit to their home while they obtain the necessary CRC checks; and, finally,
• A successful referral has occurred once a student has been matched with the referred family and subsequently completes their first month with the assigned family whom you have referred. Your referral incentive will then be deposited to your account shortly thereafter.

There is no limit to the number of host families that you can refer but you must submit a seperate referral form for each family.

Deadline for Referrals: June 15, 2024
