Hello friends,
Many thanks for your response. The email states that IRCC would be updating the fund details for candidates registering for express entry in Feb 2016. It mentions that I should ensure that the funds are available in accordance with the amended changes. So I was unable to understand what this means, in addition to receiving the UCI number. I have pasted the email below:
UCI: xxx
Application: xxx
CRS: xxx
"Unless you are currently authorized to work in Canada and have a valid job offer from an employer in Canada or you have been invited to apply under the Canadian Experience Class, you must show that you have enough money to support yourself and your family once you arrive in Canada. We determine how much money you need based on 50 percent of the low income cut-off (LICO) totals and these numbers are updated every year.
IRCC will be updating the proof of funds required for Express Entry candidates on February 27, 2016. You should check that you have reported having enough money to meet the increased standard, based on the new cut-off, to support your family if you immigrate to Canada. You can do so by updating the amount of money available to support yourself and your family in Canada in the “Personal Details” section in your Express Entry profile. This change is small but there is a possibility that it could affect your eligibility. If you do not report having enough money to meet the required minimum, you will be removed from the Express Entry pool.
Thank you for your interest in Canada."
