Proof Of Funds

Spiderlfc

Hi ALL,

I am currently in Canada and will be applying for my second year visa shortly.

I had a question regarding the "Proof of Funds"

Does this to be still shown as from looking at some posts/threads I can't see too much about it.

Does it just need to be shown coming into the country now?

Any help is appreciated

Cheers

You need a bank statement from the within the previous 7 days before traveling to Canada. I haven't heard of anyone actually being asked for it, myself and my gf weren't and we thought we would, being young and having no jobs lined up. Regardless don't travel without it, don't let them find a reason to refuse you entry.

Edit: Ah I see your already in Canada. Technically yes because they count the 2nd IEC visa as completely seperate to the first, so you should have $2500 and the price of a plane home on re-entering Canada.

Thanks for reply

I am already in Canada and have been last nine months, when I applied previously I had to fill out a proof of funds form, go to the bank and get it stamped and send with my application but it looks like this has been taken out?

Did anyone that applied last year have to do this?

Thanks!

I didn't we we're just told to have the bank statement for checking on arrival in Canada, getting a bank statement from my bank was another story. 'Sorry we don't print statements in the branch you'll have to ring customer service and we'll send it out to you in 2 weeks'. Which was useless, I ended up printing a screen shot of my online banking which may not have been good enough
