Hello everyone! What is the best way to bring money when immigrating? And what proof of funds do they need to see?

The best way to carry funds is by a traveller's cheque or a demand draft. Make sure any amount which is more than CAD10,000 must be declared at the port of entry

Do i need to show any document of where the money came from?

Generally, they do not ask. Depending on the amount. For Example for a couple around CAD 30,000- 40,000 is acceptable. But you should try carrying the proof of income, just in case they ask

Hi guys,

Got PPR today, this forum as always has been absolutely brilliant, thank you, to everyone who contributes to this forum selflessly.

Timeline :

App recd: 31st Dec
SA: 28th Feb
Med req: 1st March
Biometric Req: 1st march
Med done: 12th mar
Medical passed: 17th March
Additonal Doc req: 2nd April
Additional Doc submitted: 9th April
Additional doc status: uploaded: 10th April
Biometric letter: 10th April
Biometric updated: 11th April
Additonal docs status changed: " we are reviewing": 29th April
PPR: 30th April- email from CPC-M

the Status in GC key is still the same but we received the PPR via Email today.

Just a calculation I believe it takes around 20 days after the Biometric results are updated and around 4 weeks from the day the additional documents are submitted.

Hope this helps people waiting with similar timelines.

thanks

Congratulations! My timeline is like yours but my VO is Ankara.

Not really contributing anything but I just want to say congrats to those whose applications are moving along (or are finished)! I'm a bit sad that I haven't heard anything since mine was transferred to mississuaga in early April. ECAS has been dead and I check it every day. Sigh. My wife and I are definitely going to have a big celebration when this is all done. It's been such an anxiety-riddled process as we are both anxious people. We are hoping to have PR by Canada Day but I know that might not happen.

I appreciate all your posts!

Well you’re in still a much better position as opposed to those whose files are stuck in Sydney including myself! And I am a November applicant so that adds another month. Ecas and gckey both are dead since i passed medical early March!
Hang in there I guess that’s all I can say...

It really is very hard. We understand the anxiety and sheer stress caused by the process. Hopefully all of us will hear good news soon.
