Yes, I understand that common sense dictates they should not need a translation of every little detail :) However, I am very worried that they may reject my application due to anything they don't agree with, so I want to be on the safe side with all of my documents. Does anyone know if...

OK, that sounds simple enough, thanks. BTW, I just realized that the instructions for PoF say that I should provide the "dates each account was opened". Unfortunately, that information is not included in my bank account statements. Does anyone know if this is a *must*? Also, I was unable to...

I see. My intention would be to make life easier for the IRCC examiner, because I don't think he/she would look kindly upon aggregating 36 monthly balances (6 months * 6 accounts) and accounting for different currencies manually ;) BTW, how did you do currency conversions? Did you just use the...

Did you also translate all monthly statements and aggregate them in a table within an LoE? Aside from figuring out if the cost is reasonable, I'm trying to determine if this method of showing PoF is acceptable to IRCC. Thanks

It is my understanding that a final balance for the latest month is not good enough for showing PoF since you could have just injected money into the account all of a sudden once you realized that you got an ITA (e.g. family loan). As far as I know, that is why IRCC asks for the 6 month average...

Hi, The bank refused to provide me with a single-page letter summarizing the average balance of my six accounts over the past six months. Instead, they provided me with 36 pages worth of statements (1 monthly statement * 6 months * 6 accounts), for which they charged me ~$100. My intention was...

I got bank statements a couple week ago which corresponded to the latest months available at the time (up to March). However, I've been waiting for job reference letters to be ready and now we're into the season for April bank statements... Do I need to go to the bank again to get...

I used NOC 2174 (Computer Programmer) for a previous job in the EE application. However, I want to change it to 2173 (Software Engineer) in my PR application because it is a better match. Note that my current job and main NOC is 0213 (Computer and Information Systems Manager). I also want to...

I'd love to know for sure with feedback from people who recently got PR approved! Anyone? Thanks :)

Interesting thread! I looked at the official IRCC page about the documents required and it states: "Individuals who must submit this documentation The principal applicant Their spouse or common-law partner (if work experience in Canada is claimed)"...

Thanks! Very interesting:

A year's treatment of Humira is way over that (~$20,000)... I'm confused though, as you're saying that it's factored in buy someone else said they don't count medications.

Thanks, but in my case diet is not a sufficient treatment. In fact, I was misdiagnosed with Celiac Disease and did a gluten-free diet for 3 years, with no improvement. It was only after I was correctly diagnosed with Crohn's Disease and prescribed biologics (first Remicade, and now Humira)...

$2000 is one thing, but the people I quoted above mentioned fees of $3500 and even $6500 :o

What lawyers do people recommend for medical inadmissibility, and what would be the approximate costs? I have Crohn's Disease and, while it is fully under control, I would like to be prepared in case my PR application gets rejected because of that. The CanadaVisa.com folks recommened that I...

Truth be told, the wording is very ambiguous. "The average for the past 6 months" can be interpreted either way. I would favor showing the average for each of the past 6 months for two reasons: 1) It errs on the side of providing more information rather than less. 2) It can prove to IRCC that...

Hi Folks, I created the following Word template based on the one at the Canada Visa Help Centre (http://canadavisahelpcentre.com/the-awesome-list-of-faqs/is-there-a-fixed-format-for-the-express-entry-proof-of-funds-bank-letter/)...

That's disappointing :( How much might it cost me to get a lawyer who specializes in Canadian PR applications to advise me and my wife and check our application to make sure everything is in order? Thanks

I have several questions about the documents required for my Permanent Residence application. While this forum has been very helpful, there is a lot of conflicting advice so I'd like to get definitive answers from IRCC itself. However, their website states that: "You can contact IRCC through...
