Hi all, I am applying for super visa for my mom through the new online portal and I get really confused about the funds documents.
In the document section, it asks for 2 documents about financial support.
1) proof of income of applicant's child (me), This is clear, which is NOA or T4 or employer letter, showing I meet the LICO
2) funds (proof): I am very confused about what they are asking for.
details below:
A copy of a letter from the person that you will depend on financially during your stay in Canada.
The letter must include the amount of money this person will be providing, plus proof that this person has sufficient funds. This can be one or more of the following:
- proof of a Canadian bank account in the name of the person providing you with money if funds have been transferred to Canada
- proof of a student/education loan from a financial institution
- bank statements for the past 4 months
- a bank draft in convertible currency
- proof of payment of tuition and accommodation fees
- a letter from the person or institution providing you with money
- proof of a student's education loan from a financial institution
- a letter from the person or institution providing you with money
- proof of funding paid from within Canada, if you have a scholarship or are in a Canadian-funded educational program
The person must also provide evidence of their relationship with you. Depending on the type of relationship, this could mean a copy of a marriage certificate, phone records, birth registration, family documents or photos.
My questions are:
1) Is this just another letter other than the invitation letter, saying I will be providing, for example $20,000 for her stay?
2) But then it also says I need to include proof of sufficient funds. It seems the only one I can provide is bank statements. Do I really need to submit 4 months of bank statements?
3) The first option, proof of a Canadian bank account.... what does this mean exactly?
Thank you so much !!
