Tocy : Bank certificate is a simple letter on letter head of the bank stating that you are the customer of----------bannk with ..................... account number from this date and at present your account balance is ................
Generally signed by bank manager or incharge

Bank statement is offcourse, statement of your acocunts showing the transactions from last 6 months (as required by CIC for immigration purposes). you should have enough funds depending upon teh number of family members you are.

Bank Statement of 6 months minimum is MUST. But if u add bank certificate, it would become more authentic.

thanks for advise...i got the bank certificate exactly the way u mentioned...also got a bank statement...
 
hi...anybody has any idea how many total 1122 applications had been sent to CIO?....

i am planning to send in 2-3 days time....and worried abt the 500 quota .....thanks to all though for answering me and helping with replies of different queries....as soon I send my application, I will update the forum....
 
Tocy-- i hope ur bank statement is also on letter head and stamped!! Some banks dont stamp the bank statement unless asked! i guess ur one is stamped and on letter head of the bank
 
JFALVITEZ --- next step is wait till the time ur bank draft or credit card is charged!! Once ur fees is charged it means ur application has passed the completness check!! Later, evaluation will be done and if positive, u will be issued AOR/PER
 
Thansk, so I will wait until the charges in my credit card... Somebody knows why the pago of Total complete applications of the CIO has not updated??? today is 15/07 and it stills zero for everything!!!
 
Hopefully we all get to meet up in Canada 6-8 months from now. ;D

hi...my bank certificate is from HSBC...and its letter head....but unfortunately its not stamped....

I am adding my bank statement as well...which shows same balance as bank certificate....and it is sealed....but here its not in letter head...

will these be a cause for refusal?
 
hi...for giving input in funds field....i have used oanda.com for currency conversion from local currency to CAD...is this ok?....or there is some official website/process to convert currency from local to CAD?
 
hi all...thanks all for their suggestion and advises while I was preparing my application deck for sending to CIC....at last I am done and sent my application deck today under 1122...now keeping fingers crossed :)

can anyone comment if I sent at right time before the cap is reached?
 
I have one question ....does CIS check bank accounts personally...like does they contact with bank account managers to verify....now should I maintain my balance in the account....or i can withdraw amount and later on if rquired, again deposit the funds....
 
Like Federal Skilled Applications reduced from 1000 to 500 per category, this year Canada had also restricted the number of applications of Federal Investor Program to 700!! Previously there was no restriction in Investor Category

Almost 17 hours ago on Twitter it announced that cap of 700 applications of Federal Investor Program has reached its cap of 700 Applications

http://twitter.com/#!/CitImmCanada/status/91936264797945857

It means that CAP of 1122 is not closed yet. Otherwise it will be announced on twitter.

But i think 1122 cap will close within next 10-15 days
 
woooow this was really fast...this news have made me even more worried :(

Its a very tricky question that to keep balance or one can withdraw, i think, later once ur case is at Visa Office, tehy can again ask for the bank statement.

At present u must have teh required balance for approx last 6 months
 
Alain dot com ----- u made us laugh!!! Hopefully and pray to Allah that we may meet in CA in 6-8 months

Lets see who is in and who is out

I am also much worried about my applicatoin!! Although everything was perfectly/truly compiled, but u know there are always chances of minor errors in filling the forms and gathering/compiling the documents.(especially when u are in hurry due to CAP)
 
Ok now I have shown that I meet the funds requirement and again if they ask that is better than to maintain continuosuly!....

my question was do COC have access to our bank account to check directly without asking from us?
