Hello guys!

I have two questions:
My first question is related to the Proof Of Funds. I went to my Bank yesterday and requested a letter with CIC requirements. I just want to know if the date of the letter should be after receiving the ITA. I am actually waiting for the next round to be picked.
My second question is whether should I upload my bank statements with the letter (same field), or in the optional documents area, or not necessary since it's not requested by CIC?

Thank you a lot in advance

1) It should definitely be after ITA. You want it to be as recent as possible when you submit your PR application, so make it one of the last documents you get. I would say it must be no older than 3 weeks when you submit you application, but there is no harm in talking to the bank in advance.
2) If the letter has all the required detail there is no need for the statement.

Warm regards

Thank you so much for your reply
I will check with the bank first that the letter they will prepare meets CIC requirements, then just before submitting the e-APR i will ask them to print it and sign it for me with the date of that day.
What are the other documents that need to be as recent as possible?

Thank you

Hi,

"Document requirements

This documentation is required if the applicant indicates that they, or their spouse or common-law partner, have a family member in Canada who is a permanent resident or a Canadian citizen.
A copy of both sides of the family member's Canadian citizenship document, Canadian birth certificate and/or permanent resident card must be provided.
Evidence that the family member currently resides in Canada must be provided (a residential lease, mortgage documents, utility bills, etc.).
The documents should be up to date as of six months prior to submission.
Proof of the relationship of the applicant or the spouse or common-law partner to the family member must also be provided (e.g., a birth certificate, an official document naming the applicant as a parent, a copy of the inside back cover of the relative’s passport showing the relative’s parents)."

We took the medical Test on 30 january because we already received an ITA and applied for PR on the 31st January, but it was bounced for incompleteness because of our immigration consultant who did not do thing correctly.
I guess we can still use this medical test it is valid for 12 months
Right?

Hello again,

My marriage certificate is not in English or french and I have an official translation. Do you I have to submit this translation plus the original marriage certificate in the same document in my e-APR?
Can you please confirm me that these are the right documents? I saw in CIC that they are talking about affidavit ...

Thank you

Hi All,

I recently got ITA and still wondering wether to decline or not due to Proof of Funds. I haven't got the required $12000 CAD in my account, actually I had this balance 8 months ago but withdrew the money. Having said that, I cofounded a startup and have raised some funding from investors and even awarded for best startup of the year. The company's now valued £3.2M in London and I have 50% of the company. Having said this, I'm wondering if a Gift of Shares might be worth it in my case to show I have been issued the shares.

Also, the company can write me a check as part of my 50% equity to show the money needed, can I include this check in my application?

I really would like to follow through with my application as I don't want to wait 6 months to start putting the money if I decline this invitation

Kindly advise with any thoughts or routes I might be able to show the POF.

Much appreciated!

1) Original Germany PCC with color scan.
2) Declaration from translator with Golden Seal of translator.
3) English translation copy with Golden Seal of translator.
4) Photocopy of german PCC in black and white with Golden Seal of translator

Will it be any issue due to point 4 ?

Hello

Do you need the Declaration from translator even if the translator is a certified one?

It would be helpful if this guide could be updated to include the actual application process itself rather than just focusing on the preliminary EOI/ITA process. It would also be good to include the common pitfalls that people often fall into that can lead to a rejected application or someone being deemed inadmissible.
