I received nomination from Ontario provincial nomination program (PNP), and thereby additional 600 points has been added in my profile. Now I am waiting for invitation through Express Entry in the next draw.
Now, I am preparing documents for submitting my PR application to CIC.
One of my friend's PR application was rejected due to sudden jump of money in his bank account despite submitting a letter from his father. This is worrying me!!
When I submitted my PNP application form, my father provided me $11,000 as gift. OOPNP has accepted it as a proof of fund.
Myself and my wife are working and our total salary is more than what we need to show low in come cut-off limit. In CIC website, I found the following instruction:
“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 after you get to Canada”
In my express entry profile I have mentioned $19,000 as a settlement fund (for 3 family members) .
Right now I have also received a notarized letter from my father stating that the amount is a gift and not a loan. The bank transaction records shows his account number, bank address, his home address, my bank address, and the amount.
My question are, Is there any other proof of documents I should submit to show the amount is a gift from my father-in-law and not a loan amount? Do you think I have to show fund more than the low income cut off, even though we both are working in Canada?
