i believe the quote below answers the question wrt pof at poe.pls read the last 4 paragraphs. Its a reply to an inquiry at the new delhi vo in 2010. I also think what you have declared in the custom
declaration should exist with you at time you arrived. On the cic website. We have "You will need to provide proof of your funds to the
Canadian visa office in your home country when you submit
your application for immigration". Key word is "When you
submit". it's not you arrive.
I might be wrong though.
Thanks so much, Omoba, you're such a darling for this contribution. I think we can all rest easy on this now......
Merry Christmas to you and peace to all men of good will!

Season's Greetings! I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year of Possibilities.
On the issue of showing our POF at Port of Entry, we have discussed the various options thoroughly. For me however, I have chosen the option of documentary evidence via a bank account AND small cash in hand. Here's what I have done:
I discovered one can open an account online with Royal Bank of Canada(RBC) even before landing (https://online.royalbank.com/cgi-bin/apply/mpa/apply.cgi/getting_started). After filling the online application, I got forms via email a few days later from an Account Manager with further instructions:
•Personal Identification (2 pieces) **
Certified copies of two pieces of personal identification are required for each account holder. The primary piece must be a passport, supplemented by other documents such as birth certificate or driver's license.
** Signature Card, Personal Identification and Verification of Identity forms must be clearly legible, signed and witnessed as a true copy by any of the following:
•A RBC representative from any of our worldwide locations http://www.rbcwminternational.com/locations.html
•You may also refer to the Lawyer Locator http://www.martindale.com. Only firms provided in this list can act as a witness. Note: Any lawyer is acceptable in USA, but we are unable to accept documents witnessed by notaries.
•A representative of a Canadian Embassy/Consulate
You will be notified of your account status within one week upon receiving your completed documents.
A Canadian funds ‘Day to Day Savings Account' will be opened by default. Once the account is opened, funds may be remitted by wire transfer or a third party draft.
The account will be ‘deposit only' until your arrival in Canada and your identification is verified in person.
Note: For joint account holders, all parties must be present together when verifying your identity.
Since I was going to the US (last month), I decided to use the RBC Rep option to certify those documents. I located a RBC office; a REP accepted to certify my Passport and any US issued ID(declined my Naija Birth Cert). I then contacted the RBC Account Manager in Toronto, who advised I use the US visa as the second piece of ID, which the REP agreed to certify. To this end, I sent the package via the post office to CA and 2 accounts were opened - RBC Day to Day Savings(C$) and RBC US High Interest eSavings (US$). Note, you can domicile the account in the province you intend to land and subsequently transfer to a branch nearest to your choice place.
I asked a friend in Alberta that needed to send some money to Naija to deposit the same into the C$ account and I gave the naira equivalent to the beneficiary here. So, I have funds already in the account; I hope to get more from that person (cheaper for me). The Account Mgr had to send me a mini statement, since I cannot access it online until I get to CA and verify my identity. I intend to get more C$ from within CA and wire US$ from Naija. For the landing part, the RBC will send me the statement and letter which I will show at the POE.

Excellent one - this is also a very good option to consider

Thank you 'Lord bishop'
Merry Xmass to this Honourable House!
.......So so glad to announce to this awesome house that I got my PRV yesterday Live and Direct in Accra.
I got there at 9am Accra time and was told to return by 11am for the Ugwu Leaf because they would be closing early yesterday.
so I return at exactly 11am. I WAS THE ONLY ONE FOR PRV. I met two Applicants but were Visitors and they appeared to be Ghanian.
So they called my name by 11.30m for the PRV. I returned Joyfully with the UGWU LEAF yesterday as truly and apparent as God's Xmas Gift. I Dedicated it to God while Thanking This Honourable House for your Prayers,Felicitation and best wishes. God Bless you all.
To those MI3 left and MI8,2014 is your Year. See you on top and in Canada ultimately.
Thank You and God Bless you all!
Happy Xmass and eventful New Year in Advance.

My Dear Forumites,
Here's wishing all of you a happy Xmas and an update-filled 2014.
I am happy to announce that just when I thought my hopes were dashed,God showed up mightily in my application.
I have received my MR and instruction to pay the RPRF fee-USD 490.
My story is particularly unique bc my application had a bit of K leg in a UK caution and the onus was on me to show proof why I should not be deemed inadmissible.To sabi law good,my ppl.I had to hire a top notch lawyer who showed that I was actually ok.So thats how I am still in the race.
Please if you have doubts about your application,trust God and get a good lawyer-costs money but the will be able to tell you what the law says.
this is the best Xmas present ever.
As soon as the hol is over,I will go to the Children's Practice? for meds(read here that they are v good)
Pls I will be happy to get advice on how I can pay this USD490

Hello, Trusting God..
Congratulations on your Xmas gift!!!!
It is such a wonderful day, and I'm glad that someone on this forum has a nice Xmas gift from Accra.....
The CAD490 is easy. If you have a GTB domicilliary account, you can raise a draft in Canadian dollars from the account. You can only do it at their Oyin Jolayemi branch in Victoria Island.
Do have a happy holiday season.....
