Carrying funds

[regalkp]

Hello guys,

I am making this new thread in order to discuss various ways in which we can carry funds to Canada.

As in my case I showed maximum funds in form of Fixed Deposits(FD) which can be liquidated at any time. Now, as I have got PPR and planning to go soon. Which is the best possible way?

I came to know that I can simply carry my FD and a statement from bank that these funds can be liquidated at anytime as per the request. Will it suffice the needs of immigration officer, keeping in mind I will be carry about 5000$ in form of Forex Card?

For your initial expenses, carry some cash and some money in a forex card.

Once you reach there, open a bank account and transfer money from your local bank to the Canadian bank account electronically. This will be an easy, safe and may be a cheap way of transferring funds.
