Hello Guys,
*** very important information for applicants with spouse or common-law partner ***
I would like to share information this information with all you guys. I had been informed by Mr Mark Holthe a Canadian immigration lawyer at Stringam firm operates his business out of Lethbridge city in Alberta, that recently IRCC has changed the rules in regards to proof of funds for Permanent Resident Applicants settlement in Canada under express entry program. I have also called CIC and confirmed with agent about this.
Earlier acceptable proofs of funds by IRCC are following:
-bank accounts in principal applicant name or the name of applicant accompanying spouse/common-law partner;
-cashable investments in principal applicant name or the name of applicant accompanying spouse/common-law partner;
-cashable fixed deposits in principal applicant name or the name of applicant accompanying spouse/common-law partner.
Current acceptable proof of funds by IRCC are following :
-bank accounts in principal applicant name only, but not in the name of applicant accompanying spouse/common-law partner;
-cashable investments in principal applicant name only, but not in the name of applicant accompanying spouse/common-law partner;
-cashable fixed deposits in principal applicant name only but not in the name of applicant accompanying spouse/common-law partner.
I would like to request past applicants with spouse or common-law partner whose PR is approved/received to share their valuable inputs.
thanks
