Dear ABIONAH:



We are now completing the assessment of your application for a permanent resident visa. It appears that you may not meet the requirements for immigration to Canada in the skilled worker category.

We have determined that you may be ineligible to Canada as a foreign national by virtue of the fact that you do not meet the Financials requirements necessary for a family of 1 (CAD$11,931) as outlined in section R76(1)(b) of the Immigration Refugee Protection Act and the Regulations:
The skilled worker must

(i) have in the form of transferable and available funds, unencumbered by debts or other obligations, an amount equal to one half of the minimum necessary income applicable in respect of the group of persons consisting of the skilled worker and their family members, or

(ii) be awarded points under paragraph 82(2)(a), (b) or (d) for arranged employment, as defined in subsection 82(1), in Canada.


Before we make a final decision, you may submit additional information relating to this issue. You must show that you have enough money to support yourself and your family after you get to Canada. You cannot borrow this money from another person. You must be able to use this money to pay the costs of living for your family (even if they are not coming with you). Valuations of current property are not acceptable as proof of available funds. You must have in the form of transferable and available funds, unencumbered by debts or other obligations. Send updated bank statements, fixed deposit certificates, etc. If you have made large deposits into your accounts or fixed term investments, you must provide evidence of where the funds originated.

1. Go to your bank and print you last six months statement showing that your salary is being paid into the account. Ensure that you have adequate POF for your family size and if you made any large deposit please try and explain with a cover note.
2. As per you original employment letter, I believe you have it kindly forward it to them as they will return it back to you later.
3. Also include your salary review letter.
with all these your MR is on the way once you submit it.

hello Abionah,

congrats on the feedback from Accra. There is no cause for alarm. I will suggest you provide the following:
  • requested information i.e. 6 months bank statement of your salary account, letter of employment from your employer
  • 6 month payslip from your employer
  • letter of promotion showing your new salary
  • if you have your POF in fixed deposit, please send the certificate. Otherwise, if it is in bank account, send 6 months bank statement showing that you have had the money in the account for some time

As regards your question on your offer letter, it is likely that they are not convinced about the letter from your employer about your work and remuneration.
It will surely end in praises.

My Good people in this Forum,
While I was busy stressing myself in the office with meetings and deadlines, I decided to destress by reading from fellow forumites which I normally do at the end of each working day. On a second thought I switched to checking my mail and delete irrelevant mails. Yours truly I almost deleted my MR without even checking. GOD IS FOREVER GOOD. RK finally released my MR after requesting for photos, pof and salary statement which I sent on the 20th of August. Special thanks to Samuel eled who took his time to put me through especially concerning my POF.

My Good people in this Forum,
While I was busy stressing myself in the office with meetings and deadlines, I decided to destress by reading from fellow forumites which I normally do at the end of each working day. On a second thought I switched to checking my mail and delete irrelevant mails. Yours truly I almost deleted my MR without even checking. GOD IS FOREVER GOOD. RK finally released my MR after requesting for photos, pof and salary statement which I sent on the 20th of August. Special thanks to Samuel eled who took his time to put me through especially concerning my POF.

Admin please help me update
