does you get ANY points for this combination, and does it helps you in getting ITA?

Auone said:True that, Job Offer of atleast one year = YES; LMIA Supported = No; and then there were just some questions which basically confirmed that I have an LMIA exempt closed work permit.

Auone said:Yeah I read that guy's post, and I think he qualified for both because he entered high-enough funds.
I for example, didn't have that much funds, and my EE profile shows I qualify only for CEC
Fitztorious said:Okay thanks for the reply! Looks like the general consensus is that a minimum POF is still not required for CEC. I want to call CIC at some point and confirm - I'll let you guys know the response here. CIC should really make it clear though. I understand they are still updating their documents and checklists but things like this should be clearly communicated when launching EE.
Hhh466 said:Another question on POF. Does it matter if funds on letter from the bank are less than what you stated but still above the minimum required? Thanks.
Hansdza said:Hey folks..
seems like this topic remains unanswered completely. So what is the correct answer for the question
- For EE FSW, proof of fund is a must (mention in EE profile that you meet minimum requirement and submit proof documents after the ITA)
- For EE CEC, proof of fund is not mandatory (only mention in EE profile but there is no minimum requirement)
I`m hoping everyone can focus in this topic and give firm answer so people dont get confused when they read this thread
Hhh466 said:Does it matter if my current balance is above my average which is above the minimum? Should I withdraw funds to drop the current balance closer to the average before getting the letter printed from the bank?
Asivad Anac said:It doesn't matter, get the letter as-it-stands. CIC is keen on knowing just 2 things - do you have the money and does it belong to you. Period.
sweta1125 said:Hi
Regarding proof of funds, I got a statement from my bank in India, which states the current bal. as well as FD(Fixed deposits/Time deposits) amounts. However, to calculate the average balance the bank used the balances only in the Savings account and did not include my FD balances. Thus my average balance for the last 6 months is very low.
1)Will this create a problem?
Probably yes. CIC will expect you to explain that difference.
2)Has anybody faced similar kind of issue?
3) How can I work around it?
Use an LOE to explain this further. Provide evidences where possible to prove that these monies belong to you. Valid evidences would include pay stubs, tax assessment forms, declaration letter from donor if you've received a gift etc.
