Hi guys!
I am gathering all docs to finalize my application asap, since I got ITA on April 25.
Regarding proof of funds, I have 200,000 reais in my bank account, which is more than enough considering EE requirements.
Do I need to provide this information in CAD or BRL? In other words, which currency should I use?
Thanks in advance.

It doesn't matter which one you use.

I'm a prospective applicant for Express Entry - 2018 as I still haven't made a profile yet. Recently got my ECA done by WES and got positive assessment. Now I am moving towards collecting various documents needed for the process and one of which is Proof of Funds.


Doubts:


- Does CIC ever ask the applicant to provided bank statements older than 6 months? If so, then how old? A year?


- I've heard that CIC also accepts gift deeds from siblings/parents. What if the money has been transferred and have stayed in the primary applicant's account for more than 6 months. Do we still require gift deed?


- Can a personal loan taken about 6 - 8 months prior to the day we generate bank statements be shown as proof of funds?


- What if a person has been saving money from his personal business say, 4-5 lakh as cash and now he wants to show it as funds? How can he show such money as his PoF?


- I believe CIC can also accept Fixed Deposits as proof of funds. What if such cash amount or the loan amount be put in fixed deposit and made it stay there for more than 6 months? Could it be shown as PoF?

All IRCC want to see is your past 6 months transactions to be sure excessive amount of fund didn't go through your account without explanation.

Yes, gift deed is accepted but not loans. In a case the money has been in your account for more than 6 months, then no need to make up a gift deed and explain.

Showing personal cash saving as a PoF, you will need to explain with LOE but better still, you could pay the money in your parent's account and have it transferred to you and do a gift deed to avoid need suspicious thinking.

Loans are not accepted except you have your own way around it.

Hope this will help

Any currency will be fine. If you leave it in your country's currency, it will still be converted to CAD to see if it meets up the total amount.

Hi all,
I'm planning to show my PF account balance as a part of my POF.
Is it accepted?
If yes, what documents should we provide??

Thanks in advance.

I have a PF which I opened in 2011. I can show that as POF as the clause to withdraw amount partially is after 7 years. But my spouse PF account was opened last year only. So it cannot be liquidated so should I show it or not.

PF can be liquidated entirely for immigration purpose. It is mentioned on EPFO website itself.

Hello guys,
I'm really confused on this gift deed which I need to show few of my funds from my father. Now I went to a lawyer and he told there are only 2 ways to do this.
1. Get a 100 rupee stamp paper and write appropriate content and he will use his notary stamp and stamp it.
2. schedule a visit to sub-registrar and get the gift deed registered just like a property transfer which will need need registration fees and physical presence for me and father to sign.

please suggest what should I do. Option 2 is too time consuming and expensive.
Thanks

Hi Guys,

My company would be paying me arnd 25k CAD once I resign from the current job (end of service benefit), can I show it as POF for express entry.
I would surely get the letter from the company stating that and other documents from the bank stating no loan is pending.

Thanks in advance for the reply.

No....these kind of things are not acceptable...money has to be in your bank account or FD or Mutual Funds or EPF etc...
