hi everybody,
applying for PR requires Proof of Fund.. it states that
o The letter(s) must be printed on the letterhead of the financial institution and must include the applicant’s name, the contact information of the financial institution (address, telephone number and email address), the account numbers, the date each account was opened and the current balance of each account as well as the average balance for the past six months.
Now thing is that I have recently opened an account and deposited the money in it...How come I would be able to show average balance for past six months???

Show them where did you bring the money from. IF the money is gifted by parents you need a gift deed. Remember the money gifted by parents also has to be with them since 6 months and not borrowed recently.

Not required. The statements already show net balance. Write a forwarding letter calculating 6 months average balance.

Is this mandatory in gift deed for parents to show their source, I am getting a gift deed and my parents fill huge amounts in ITR, which can easily justify that amount of saving, plus the family business is such that sums of money keep coming and going, i.e there is no proper bank statements to show consistent 6 month old money in bank maintained in such huge amount, please let me know if you have some insight into this matter and if this is a mandatory thing and can lead to rejection?

If such amounts keep coming in and goes out then the average is made and it shows up in their account. it need not b maintained for 6 months but should back it up with source. it should'nt be a worry for u i guess.

May b bestofluck could clarify

Dear Experts!

For POF, only parents can gift you money or your siblings can too!! My brother wants to give 40% of my POF as a gift, for which I will attach a gift deed. Is it acceptable??

Hi everyone,

I am getting required amount from my brother and uncle.

what documents other then mentioned below do I need?

1- Account statement of donor before transfer.
2- Proof of transfer in my account
3- My bank statement after amount credited in my account.
4- Gift deed.

Any thing missing in here?

Also, what is the difference between an affidavit and gift deed? Aren't both the same things?
What is the content of affidavit?
