Guys I just want to confirm if do I really need to show proof of funds even if my visa category is Federal skilled worker with arranged employment opinion? from the CIC website it says there that I don't need to bring with an amount of 11,115 CAD because I have an AEO but when I attended the Pre-Departure Orientation Seminar, the officer said that I need to bring that money. Now, I am really confused my flight will be this coming June 24,2013 ,if I really need those money to bring with me then I am in trouble. Please for those Skilled Worker with AEO. Do you really need to bring that big amount of money? Your advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

By this this is this is the CIC guidelines,
You will need to show proof to the Canadian visa office in your home country that you have enough money when you apply to immigrate.

The amount of money you need to support your family is set by the size of your family. We update these amounts every year.
Number of
Family Members Funds Required
(in Canadian dollars)
1 $11,115
2 $13,837
3 $17,011
4 $20,654
5 $23,425
6 $26,419
7 or more $29,414

You do not have to show that you have these funds if:

you have a valid offer of arranged employment in Canada AND
you are currently working or authorized to work in Canada.
