Proof of funds

[kris32]

Dear friends,

I have a few questions on the proof of funds under the federal skilled worker category. I am planning on applying for PR (FSW) in about a week. However, I do not have sufficient "liquid" funds at present. I do expect to receive my tax refunds in about a month which will accumulate my total bank balance to about $17K. Do I need to show the required funds before I send my application to Sydney, NS or can I show the funds when I send my application to Buffalo? Also, in the FSW instruction guide it is said that the amount should be "unencumbered, transferable, and available funds" and this amount can include "value of any property that you own". Does this mean one can show both the liquid funds and value of the immovable properties as well? Thank you all in advance.

Kris

You don't need to send Proof of Funds at first stage to Sydney. Later you would have to submit at Buffalow and as you said, Hope funds would be ready antill that time.

You can't include poperties, there are some visa offices who accept property values as proof of funds, so check your visa office specific website and guide/instructions , in your case Bufalow. By the way, How many applicants you have ?? if its one or tow even three, 17K is enough for.

You cant use gratuity pay as POF only Provident fund is accepted.
