Best way to show funds for Temp Visitor Visa from India?

[Sunny_Sharma]

Hi,

I am a Canadian PR holder staying in Toronto. I'm planning to apply for visitor visa for my mother and Sister and was wondering what would be the best way to show funds?

They will be here for less than 1 month and can show approx CAD 7,000 each in their bank accounts.

1. Would putting that money in a Fixed deposit rather than bank account make the application stronger?
2. Should they combine the money to make a single FD of $14,000 which will show both their names as they will be coming together?
3. My mother owns an apartment too. How can I show that as per of her assets to convince the visa officer that she has enough to sustain her trip?

Any other please of advise will also be appreciated.

Thank you

If the FD was created more than 6 months ago, nothing needed. If it was created within the last 6 months, you'll need to show source of funds.

If your family have savings accounts, the visa officers checks the bank statement for the past 4 months of an applicant to see his/her cash flow. Putting all money at one go will be obvious that the money is not theirs.

Your mom can show land titles to support that she owns a property
