Hey,
Reading mixed reports on this and whats required. Can anyone fill me in on exactly what's needed? Is it 6 months of all accounts? And also the fact that I have debt as in CC or line of credit go against me? I am in Canada working on an lmia due Intent work permit :)

No you dont.
Your job letter stating your salary, pay stubs, t4 ans noa should be enough

I don't know why are you being so persistent with your financial background, if its not needed.
You may avoid it as it is not required. Rest your wish.

If you have yet to receive an ITA then you can you put zero under funds available and then you will not have to show any bank statements post-ITA.
If you already got ITA and claimed to have some funds before, then you must get a 1-page letter from the bank stating you average monthly balance for the last 6 months.

for FSW you always have to show POF.

Not a silly question, I have submitted my application under CEC with an LMIA and in employment and yes you do have to have a letter from your financial institution to submit, showing all accounts held with them, the date of opening and the average balance over the past 6 months. My bank (RBC) said this isn't possible due to having to work out interest rate per day etc. so they added a line to include 6 months worth of statements and hoped that would be enough.

Good luck!

So I was right dunno why I doubted myself should not listen others I guess. Thanks that's the same bank as me. Could you not just print 6 online statments for the past month of each account?

Something somewhere is wrong. My brother got an ITA under FSW though he was eligible for both CEC and FSW. However, he also had Zero in funds and CIC never asked for POF.

At the end it is CIC they can do whatever they want.

If it is not on the checklist then don't worry until they ask. Also you're not the only one with loans. Most of the people in this country have loans on them and this shouldn't be a problem.

Yep I did do that, but they need a letter from your Bank too on headed paper etc. RBC waived the $15 fee for me. After you get your ITA and completed the rest of the online info, you'll see your own document checklist.
