Hello Babbu you are absolutely right, this is a huge risk - the idea of POF at the time of landing is to have the money "with you" to support yourself and your family in settlement - which is a totally different situation than the POF required during the application - as at that stage what is required only is to show that you have money available - it wouldn't matter in which bank or which country at application stage.
The CIC instructions are very clear, in the official cic site they have suggested any of the below as an acceptable POF to be shown at the canadian port of entry:
- cash
- securities in bearer form (for example, stocks, bonds, debentures, treasury bills) or
- negotiable instruments in bearer form (for example, bankers’ drafts, cheques, travellers’ cheques or money orders).
Ofcourse the required amount should be as below (depending on the number of family members)
Number of
Family Members Funds Required
(in Canadian dollars)
1 $11,115
2 $13,837
3 $17,011
4 $20,654
5 $23,425
6 $26,419
7 or more $29,414
