I have one question, I have not provided a statement of bank account for 3 months as I did not have much savings. I deposited the money and took a balance confirmation to attach as funds proof. Would this be an issue? Thank you.

From what I recall, under the Funds (Proof) section, IRCC allows you to provide one or more financial documents, so your balance confirmation should be fine as long as it shows sufficient funds. However, officers may prefer seeing 3-4 months of bank statements or any supporting documents to check for financial stability. Since you didn’t include these due to low savings, the balance confirmation should work, but be ready to provide additional info if requested (though they usually don’t). Adding a letter of explanation might also help.
Hello Everyone,
I applied Super Visa for my mom who already had an existing one but her visa got expired with the passport. We applied her super visa on September 13th and we got the biometric done on 18th September. We realized that we have by mistake entered her as Male (M) so we raised a webform right before she went to the biometrics. Here are our concerns. Please help us
1. When I used her existing UCI for some reason when we did through the new online portal she got a new UCI . Is this okay ? Could it be because we chose Male by mistake? Now how do we rectify this ?
2. Her biometrics is not updated yet - it’s been more than 48 hrs and her application did not get updated with her biometrics details. What do we do for this ?
3. For the web form we raised to change her from Male to Female we did not get even the automated response . Will this delay the process ? How can we rectify this ?
Please help as I am really looking forward for my moms presence in Canada
