I received ITA on 22nd August 2018. I have below queries regarding proof of funds.

1. I am the primary applicant with my spouse accompanying me to Canada. Can I use my husband's funds as a proof? We do not hold any joint account. In this case how to claim authorization for my husband funds?
2. We have accumulated our funds over past 3-4 months since we started the PR process. Will it be fine to use these funds?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

- Your husband needs to provide a declaration(a letter) that the funds in his account can be accessed by you... read the below in red...
If your spouse is coming with you, you can count money you have together in a joint account. You may be able to count money in an account under their name only, but you must prove you have access to the money.

- Is the source of funds through your own salary/savings or is there any gift deed/transfers from your parents involved? If any transfer from your parents are involved as gift you need a gift deed and letter from your parents stating that they have providing you these funds and you have full access to these funds etc.
