Hi All, we have received ITA and we are figuring out on proof of funds that are to be submitted. I am the primary applicant and my husband will be accompanying me. My husband and I don't have a joint account. Although, he had maintained the balance for past 6 months in his account and is currently living in US. As per cic website ,I can use funds in his account but we need to prove that I have access to those funds. what all documents are required in such a case? is there any specific format for those documents?
A signed declaration from husband could suffice (only valid for co-applicant)

We did what is called a certificate of no-objection, basically a signed letter from me in which I allow my wife to use all funds in accounts under my name without any restriction

hello everyone.

I will submit my express entry profile next week. I have been doing research about proof of funds and have a question. currently, I don't have enough funds in my bank account but my husband does. The bank told us it is not possible to give me access for his account. seems like we have 2 options here; either we will open a new joint account and send all that money to the new account, or my husband will send all the money to my account.

the question is since there is going to be a huge amount of money movement, would that be a problem? Say I will attach a letter of explanation, what should I write? Any help is appreciated! Thanks.
