Hi everyone. I am currently putting together my visa application to visit my sister in Toronto and I have a question about available funds.

I have a USD bank account with about $5000 and I also have a couple of credit cards. Can I use my credit cards as proof of funds? So basically if I have about $2000 available to use on a credit card is that considered acceptable? I ask because most people use credit cards to pay for their trips anyway but I'm not sure it's considered acceptable. And if its not considered acceptable would it hurt to mention in a motivation letter that I have those funds available to use during my trip? Thanks. :)
