Is it needed? on CIC website it says it isn't needed. Once ITA issued it asks to upload a document under proof of funds.

I don't have a problem with providing bank statements, but is it as strict as other programs (such explaining anything over 2K transfers, Average over 6 months needs to meet certain criteria etc)

Also, what should I do if I am waiting for my police clearance from USA, but I know I will not get it in time and I don't have a necessary copies that I mailed it in. I do have a receipt from Canada post with a date but nothing that says what was mailed.

I dont want to decline my ITA just because I don't have my police clearance from USA. Can I call customer service FBI and can they provide me a confirmation that they received it? Just to add, I sent it before my ITA was issued but only a few days before.

Thank you

Regarding to Proof of founds, in my case I put $8,000 ( just in case ) If you can't provide FBI in time but at least you have Confirmation of the received just upload it and write LOE I think it should be fine ...

Let see another comment...

CIC explicitly states that you are exempted from POF if you're invited under CEC. They go on to say that you can simply upload a short note (highlighting that you don't need to show POF) instead of any proof of funds if you're prompted for POF in your post ITA application.

The FBI bit is trickier. Provide as much evidence as possible that you've applied for it and delay application submission till the last few days. Add an LOE requesting for an extension. That's the best you can do - it's the officer's discretion after that.

All the best!
