Hi everyone,

My bank doesn't issue a letter that has all the accounts I have opened with them. Instead, I have to request a letter for each.

Do I need to list all the accounts, even those that don't have money in them?

What I'm providing is:

Current account (doesn't have much funds, my salary is credited to it though)
- Stamped statement for last 8 months
- Reference letter showing when the account was opened, together with my name, etc.

Savings account 1 (has all funds that covers the IRCC's minimum since 1+ years)
- Stamped statement for last 8 months
- Certificate of balance
- Reference letter showing when the account was opened, together with my name, etc.

Savings account 2 (has zero funds)
- Reference letter showing when the account was opened, together with my name, etc.

Liability letter
- Shows my credit card's outstanding debt

Thanks!

You do not need to show Saving account 2. Just Savings account 1 will do as it has all the required funds. In case you want to show th source of these funds, which I am guessing is your salary, you can show the Current account.

Yeah, that's why I'm providing statements and reference letter for both. Only providing certificate of balance for the savings account as it covers the funds.

My only source of income is my salary which is mentioned in my payslips, statement, as well as my current employer's reference letter.

I'm only hesitant because IRCC mentions "all" bank accounts in their request.
