Do I really have to take the money which I mention to Canada or just the minimum required?

[BinarySingh]

I have received an ITA and while filing the form there is a question asking "How much money (in Canadian dollars) will Gurmeet Singh bring to Canada to support themselves and their family?"

At present, I have about CAD 62,776 in my bank account as per the bank statements received from the bank. But I might end up spending about 10,000 CAD by the time I land.

My agent is saying that the amount to be entered into the field must be according to the bank statements. And at the time of landing, I just need to take the amount mentioned in the table https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...nada/express-entry/documents/proof-funds.html

Also, I have an ongoing loan of about CAD 24,000.

Whatever my agent is saying is that correct? How much amount must I mention now? 62,776 or the amount that I think I might be actually able to take with me at the landing time.

The second question, will the loan impact the application in any way?

You should only enter minimum required depending upon your family size. You can round it up to the nearest thousand.

They can't reject you as long as you have the minimum required funds

My question was can I write a higher amount and just carry the minimum required at the time of landing?
