Proof of funds when landing

[ShootOwl]

Hi everyone. I've received my COPR and plan on landing soon. Someone just reminded me that I need to show proof of funds when I arrive in Canada. What can I use for evidence of this?

Also, can you confirm that all I need when I land are:

1. Passport with visa
2. COPR
3. Proof of funds

Thanks!

Bump. Info still required.

Proof of funds- Carry your bank statements. As long as your account has enough funds, it should suffice. (if they ever ask you)

Rest are usual along with COPR and Goods to declare forms BSF186/BSF186A.

Canadian is scarce in my country apparently. I can't get more than a few hundred at a time.

I think I meant to ask if anyone has successfully opened a Canadian bank account while in another country.

Ohhh. Canadian Dollars!
Is it? We haven’t tried but I’ll note this when we try.

Scotiabank has this offer where first, you set up an account to transfer your money from your local to theirs and then when you arrive, you just activate the account at a branch.

This thread is about Permanent Residence. I'm not sure about study visa.

Regarding my PR - I don't recall them asking for proof of funds. I had my bank statement and probably $1000 CAD.
