Hello guys
I need some guidance please.
I received an ITA on 4th May draw with 435 CRS score. Now my issue is that I opened a bank account in my home country on 25th of Feb 2017 and it won't be 6 months old when I submit my application. I do have the required money in my account but feel like they might refuse my application because bank letter won't cover 6 months.
Do you guys think that I decline this ITA and wait for a new one to ensure there are no issues whatsoever OR carry on with this ITA?
Bank account not being 6 months old, could that be an issue or am I just para

Hello,

I'm bit confused as to what to mark for a degree that is complete and has my convocation end of this month. It makes lots of difference in my score. Should it be degree completed or no certificate but completed with good standing. CIC is kinda very confusing at times. Thanks in advance!

You can say degree completed....but u will have to show a transcript to prove it.....and im guessing u can apply for a transcript only after your convocation.... so.... for the time being u cant claim it ....at least it wont be useful to you if u get an ITA too soon. Getting transcripts and getting that assessed takes time.

He also needs an average for the last 6 months. So I think that is where he needs advice because his account is not yet 6 months old. It won't be until the ending of August so he wants to know I'd he should decline ITA and wait till then.

Once we get our ITA who all are in with me to start a Immigration Consultancy? I bet we have far more knowledge than many in business now
And you have the record for creating the most number of Ray of Hope Threads!!
Anyway, here is a thought, albeit it may sound impractical.

"Let's all active members of this thread meet up someplace in Canada at a suitable date, and celebrate our success". It would be a real treat to meet you fellas in person, wouldn't it?

This is correct.
If you have an explanation, provide an LoE. If everything's good and you have proof (like you sold your car and you have the sales contract), then there should be no problem.
If someone gave you this money as a gift, then you could provide a gift deed. The deposit must be for an equivalent amount, or you'll have to explain the rest of the funds as well.

don't you have any other bank account that has been in operation for more than six months...if yes,why don't you transfer the amounts to that one and resolve...
I'm sure as someone who must've had one year work experience is sure to have an account at least that long...:rolleyes:
only that you will have to show the source of the fund in the letter of explanation....and it can't be borrowed....

Thanks for the response. Actually I have been working abroad till April last year and closed my accounts when I came back. Also I started working in my dad's company when I came back and didn't need an account as I was getting paid in cash. Regarding narrowing money, I will be a submitting a gift deed from my dad so that shouldn't be an issue I hope.
Just worried about bank account not being more than 6 months old.

I think they are still working on the update of CRS. Wednesday I had 434pts. Yesterday 449 and today 464. Both me and my wife submitted french test, is it 15pts each?

If you're getting a Gift Deed from your father, you shouldn't pay attention to the account not beign more than a couple months old.
They only ask for it to see the average balance for the last 6 months, as a way to know if the money actually is yours.
Because you're presenting a gift deed, your father is telling the money was him and now is yours. So it doens't matter if he makes it even after receiving the ITA. Just be sure that you receive a transfer for that same amount.

EDIT: And very important, you must make sure that these funds stay in that account at least until you land in Canada.

Hi Everyone,
I am posting on behalf of my friend, he just created profile today with CRS 453. I know that minimum CRS in last draw who got ITA was 413, so I am expecting that he will get invite in next draw. I have few questions,

1) My friend has around INR equivalent of $15k in his liquid mutual fund account which is readiliy encasheable any time. Can he use the folio statements of those liquid mutual funds to show POF ?
2) When is PCC and medical records need to be uploaded, after he recieves ITA or CIC specifically demands for it ?
