Hi Gurik, pls do you know much about translations of PCC to English or any links to that? I want to know if only translations done in Canada are accepted.

Hi,
Is it safe to go for gift deed as proof of fund option? Because we might receive ITA in few days and our bank balance wouldn't be 6 months matured by the time we apply for PR

Yes it is a safe option, I have submitted gift deed as proof of fund for 50% of the required amount.

No no nothing like that. Go to a notary with the original document, in most cases they get it translated also, if not then got to a recognised and certified translator in your country. After getting the document translated, get an affidavit from the translator, who translated the document. Get the translated copy, a copy of the original document and the affidavit, all attested by the notary properly. Now upload 4 documents-
1) Original documents scanned in color
2) Translation of the document
3) Certified copy of original attached along translated document
4) Affidavit of translator

For all kinds of translations follow this Rule.

Preferably get money in form of cheque for the car sale, it will be more legitimate. In my country such cash transaction will come under black money transaction, so if heavy cash transactions are legitimate in your country then only cash transaction is ok. Or if the car is not registered as u said, get the money in your parents account show the sale through them, pay the tax for the money and get it as a gift from your parents. If you cannot do any of these, then as a last resort get the sale and cash transaction mentioned on a notarised stamp paper, also on the paper get everything clearly mentioned in detail.
Attach all the documents that you can gather to prove the car is yours along with this notarised sale receipt. Upload your Gift deed and these documents together as POF along with Balance certificate and 6 month statements (taken from your bank).
Until and unless you don't have any loan on the money you are showing to CIC, and there is no direct or indirect liability on this money whatsoever, you are okay to go. You do not need to pay any other loans taken on any other savings of yours or possessions. It is okay to have outstanding debts as long as they do not affect the amount shown to CIC.

Hi there:
Hope you're well. I needed to clarify something from you regarding the POF. For the proof of funds I did two things:

1) Sold my car, and made a sale deed signed by both the parties and of course notarized. Moreover, the buyer gave me the money in the form of a pay order cheque that I first scanned for evidence and then deposited.

2) My father gave me the remaining amount as a gift through cheque. Made a gift deed and affidavit for that. Scanned the cheque and then deposited.

Problem: Today I got the bank statement for the POF, and it dawned upon me that both the amounts of sale of car and gift from parents are there in the transactions, but the cheque no's of both the payorder and father's cheque are absent. Instead under the instrument no., they have simply mentioned "Transfered". How would CIC know that it is exactly the same money who cheque no's I have mentioned in the sale deed and gift deed, if the cheque no's arent there?
Secondly, I do have the cheques deposit slips, but I also found out today, that my account number has been updated/Changed and that the account number that my deposit slip mentions is different than the one that my bank letter and statements mention. Is that going to be a problem? Or is there no need for the deposit slips also to be attached as POF documents?

Please guide. Thank you.

Hi! Why do we need a certified copy if we´re already attaching the original, a translation AND an affidavit?

Its what CIC asks my dear, check the link mentioned there in my post. Maybe they need to be sure that you got the very same documents translated and not anything else by the translator, no idea, only CIC knows.

Your documents are in perfect order now, no need to attach the cheque, its not mandatory, CIC will consider all other documents you are attaching and even if in a rare case they need such information, they always ask so, I think you are good to go.

Thanks By the way gurik, my account statement has this sentence that my national identity document has expired and that I should provide the bank with a new one at earliest. I did provide but it will take them time to update, like days. Would this sentence be a problem? Also, the statement says its electronic and no signatures required. Now I do have a bank letter but it misses the average monthly balance part. Any thoughts here?

Get the average balance of 6 months on the letter if possible, if not then add statements instead to show monthly balance.
The national identity document thing might seem fishy to some cruel agent, better get it corrected ASAP, if you have the time why keep that little bit of doubt in mind. Get an updated one, also ask them to at least stamp and sign the statement. if they refuse, Better attach Bank Manager's business card along so that if CIC has any doubt they can call.
