No news so far
I am going to hit the six months mark tomorrow. Although I do not expect news, I will contact them tomorrow.

I have thought to order GCMS notes again. :

Hi guys.

Just got my GCMS notes on the 18th of August.

Ordered new ones today.

I am about to cross the 5 month mark, one more to go - if no delays happen.

Good luck to us all.

What do your notes say? Was your process transferred to Sao Paulo?

Hello, guys. A "hi" from Recife (a.k.a. Récife ;D )

Congrats to whom got PPR! I am some steps behind you, sitting at 475 CRS (waiting for an ITA) and also waiting for my SINP to be processed.

1) I would like some help from you regarding Proof of Funds. As written on CIC website (cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/intake-complete.asp), the Bank Statement should include the average balance for the past six months. How did you calculate it? I guess it is the sum of the ending balance at each of the last 6 months, divided by 6, right?

2) Still regarding Proof of Funds, when I contacted (in person, by the way) my bank to provide the Bank Statement, they put everything I need, unless the average balance (6 months) as I thought above. Itaú said they can not provide this information on the Statement, only the current balance. Itaú guided me to use Bank Certificates for each of the last 6 months to support my application. How did you proceed after ITA? Have your banks provided the 6-month average balance on the Bank Statement (and it was enough), or did you need to attach Bank Statement and 6-month Bank Certificates as well?

3) Last question about PoF: if you had provided Bank Statement + 6-month Bank Certificates, have you translated all the certificates? I mean, they are almost entirely numbers, with few words... Do we really need to translate so much information? I checked with my translator and the budget for it was completely expensive, out of reality. Too many characters...

Thank you in advance!

Hello, let me try to help you.

1. No, it is not this way. Actually, I am not sure how it should be. My friend sent a statement that contained the six last months and their final balance, for example: JAN/16: R$ 22.000,00, FEV/16: R$ 25.000,00 and so on. However, I send the statement a little bit more detailed. Actually I send 6 months of transaction by transaction (yeah, every single transaction). My tip here is, put every single information that CIC requires, do not miss anything. Check it out: http://www.canadaparabrasileiros.com/forum/topic/4467-express-entry-guia-documenta%C3%A7%C3%A3o-p%C3%B3s-ita/

2. I send 2 bank statements. My first was that detailed, as I said above. The second, from Itau too, was I letter that contained the amount in my account in the last six months. For example, JAN/16: R$ 22.000,00, FEV/16: R$ 25.000,00 and so on. I asked, I explained, and then they did. Actually, both banks (Itau and Caixa) were very kind and helpful to provide me the statement as I asked them.

3. I translated every single page. Yeah, it was expensive, but it worth every penny.

;D

It says A11.2 Met and R10 Ok.

After that, it was sent to São Paulo in June 8th. Since then, nothing.
