Proof of funds – Skilled immigrants (Express Entry)
Note: We update these numbers every year based on 50 per cent of the Low Income Cut-Off totals. If you filled out your Express Entry profile before January 27, 2015, you may have received correspondence that your profile has been reassessed. You may want to double-check that you still have enough money, based on the new cut-off, to support your family if you immigrate to Canada. This change is small but there is a chance it could affect your eligibility.

Number of
Family Members Funds Required
(in Canadian dollars)
1 $12,164
2 $15,143
3 $18,617
4 $22,603
5 $25,636
6 $28,913
7 or more $32,191

The amounts are different now. I showed 15k for my application because it was $14890
But now its more than $15k.
Will that affect our application ?

I believe this update of POF is applicable only for those who would be sending their PNP or PR applications after this notification has come on CIC website. All other previous applications should be fine since they followed the earlier notification about POF.
