Proof of 'Landing Funds" >>>

[Ibasco]

guys we take our Bank Draft (for proof of landing/settlement fund) from emirates bank in UAE today, that is in US dollar, but I've noticed that the recipient bank is City Bank with Branch in US...do you think this will create a problem? of the recipient bank should be in Canada....They told me, it is OKAY considering that City Bank is all over....they also said that I can even even deposit that to my account in other banks in Canada, once I open an account.....thanks

yes u can deposit that in your own account in Canada, if the DD caries your name on it.

Thanks Mute_man.....its under my name....my only concern is that the recipiengt bank is outside Canada...its in US...

But aside from that DD, we also have 5,000 US Dollar in Cash...and I hope that is enough and immigration will accept that......many thanks.....

Bringing a draft drawn on US bank is common practice here in Canada for new immigrants.

The only problem is that it will take time for your draft to clear (more then a month sometimes) as it is from a US bank.

You have to carry the minimum amount require per your family size. This amount will be total of cash+DD.

Hi All

I am planning to take US bank's cashier checks as proof of landing.

My worry is: how should I bring back the money into US? I will be staying in Canada only for 3-4 days. Could I just deposit the same Cashier's check in my US accoutn once I am back to US?

Please advise.

Suggest contacting CIC if you are driving in for a few days to just complete your landing.

I have heard they are accepting US bank statements as POF for landing at US border, so you will not need a cashiers check.

You can just complete the landing and drive back the same day (but they will not accept your Canadian address for PR card delivery and your goods to follow list, in this case).

Who are you talking too?

I didn't want to take a risk, took a self-payable cashier's check with me. The officer did ask for proof of funding and was happy with the check.

I just completed the landing a couple of days back and now am back to US.
