one of my friend told me that bank statement should be sent with the application form but i couldn't find anythin like that in the guide so plz seniors confirm me if do I need to provide bank statement at the time of sending application or it would be required later on..and if it is not required by now, any idea like after how many months they would ask for it??
and one more question..
in which form do we need to mention about the blood relative family members (uncle/aunt) living in canada???
Thanks in advance,

I think with CIC's promised "crack down" on fraudulent applications they are going to start getting stricter with proof of funding evidence to ensure people are not borrowing funds for immigration purposes.
If CIC ever read this forum they will see some members ADMITTING to borrowing from companies and relatives and then only sending a bank certificate with the balance, to conceal the amount borrowed, and then lying to CIC on their forms pretending that the money is theirs.
So I think there is a good chance CIC will start insisting on bank statements for proof of funds to be valid. Some visa offices already do insist - but I think CIO may centrally start refusing applications that do not supply statements.
With the caps being very small now (500) I wouldn't want to risk it, since if your application is returned by CIO you could miss your chance - so definitely supply at least 3 months' bank statements. 6 months statements would be better.
