Financial Profile

[eric.sears]

I wanted to upload my docs for proof of financial profile.

I saw this below. This almost seems impossible. I have never heard a bank do the below. Plus i have like 6 bank accounts. Am I supposed to request the below from all?

Express Entry - Permanent Residents
If you are applying for permanent residence in Canada, you must provide an official letter issued by your financial institution indicating your financial profile. This must:

• list of all your bank (chequing and savings) and investment accounts, the account numbers, dates each account was opened and the balance of each account over the past six months,
• list all outstanding debts, such as credit cards and loans,
• be printed on the letterhead of the financial institution, and include your name and the contact information of the financial institution (address, telephone number and e-mail address).

Letters of when the account(s) were opened + bank statements of the last 6 months should suffice. Make sure everything's stamped.

The main goal is to prove you have enough money and that it's yours (i.e. not borrowed).

Just use the bank account that has the required settlement funds. You don't need to bother with other bank accounts that you hold. If you bank can include the average balance for the past six months in the letter , you don't need to attach six months of statements. Example

Average Balance for last six months:

November 2016 - $xxxxx
December 2016 - $xxxxx etc

Just make sure the account number, opening date and current balance is mentioned in the letter. If you had a sudden spike in funds within the six month period, it would help to explain the source but if you've had a steady balance, the letter alone should suffice.
