Hi,

I'm close to submitting all my documents. I have some questions regarding proof of fund that I would like to get clarified. I need some advice. I can't find a definitive answer on any of the threads
As a single applicant, I need to show 12300 CAD
- I have about 9600 CAD in my savings account right now
- For remaining 2700 CAD I have below options:

1. I can show my EPF balance. For that, I have online statements and UAN card downloaded from the website. I went to the PF office to get PF certificate but they refused to accept my request letter saying it needs to be stamped and signed by my employer. My employer refused to stamp and sign my letter saying they're not authorized to do it since it's completely government fund.
Can just submit my online statements and UAN card? What are the risks involved?

2. I have a joint FD with my mother. I can get that FD encashed and deposit the money in my savings account. What are the risks and what legal documents do I need to provide to CIC to explain that this money is not borrowed and is solely for the purpose of my visa application?

3. I also have a small share of around 1100 CAD on my Demat account that I'm looking forward to sell. The credit of the sale proceeds will also go to my savings account. Do I need to provide any documents to justify that credit?

I'm only one step away from submitting my eAPR. These concerns have been bothering me a lot. I don't want to make any mistake in submitting the documents. Any advice would be highly appreciated.

Thank you
