Hi,
I just did my soft landing in July and wanted to move permanently in Sep/Oct. As part of the process, I'd need to wire transfer money from my current bank in my home country to the bank account I currently have with Scotia. For those of you who have done this before, will Scotia freeze the transferred money so they can do the AML checks? If yes, how long would the funds be frozen for and would you need to provide any supporting documents (i.e. notarized gift deeds, bank statements, etc.)?
Thanks much and happy migrating!
