I did not hear about three or two months that you talked about, where did you get this information

[Hareega]

Hi Sosololo,
I have received a list of the required documents from my representative, which included regarding the proof of funds the following:

PROOF OF FUNDS/SOLVENCY: Unless otherwise specified, this can be shown by the following documents:
- BANK STATEMENTS: Original bank statements showing sufficient funds in the name of you or your spouse/common law partner. We recommend submitting a total of three months of banking history to establish your ability to consistently maintain the required amount of funds.
- BANK LETTER: Original letter from your bank, on bank stationary, signed by an officer of the bank, listing all of your assets and liabilities with their institution.

I hope this will help...

 @ sharmilas

sad to hear about ur case,anyways now plz check ur application throughly , if it is accurate  better is to send docs with new signatures. get the copies xeroxed except the pages which require signature, if possible then get signs of ur wife immediately (nothing is much important rt now than Canada PR, at least for me).

best of luck

[Doglover]

hi Hareega
I think it is good idea to do something like this. but what I'm sure about is that you have to leave your fund in the bank till you travel to Canada.
but I think bank statement is not a must maybe prefer.
What about seniors .. we need your advice ...

[Hareega]

Sosololo,
Maybe it is safer to wait till 3 months to pass with the money in my account, though this will make me wait for a month and a half, doing nothing.
Anyway I would appreciate any senior advice and at the same time I will send an email to my consultant for advice.
I will let you know when I receive any updates...

Hi Sosololo,

Hareega, this is just recommendation from your representative but I did not see this requirement in any visa office instruction...
 
By the way where did you see your status? why on CIC website, I thought all initial process in CIO Nova Scotia? How to do that?

I hope this will help...

Hareega, Doglover
what you just need is :
BANK LETTER: Original letter from your bank, on bank stationary, signed by an officer of the bank, listing all of your assets and liabilities with their institution.
nothing more.   you do not need any bank statement in this step. Are you agree with me ?
Also, I think after your medical and interview is finished they will asked you to transfer your money to Canadian Bank. in this step it is a must ...
This is what I know.
maybe anyone knows more ...

[Hareega]

Dear erikvirgo,
When I received the AOR, there was a file number, formaly called "Immigration File Number" I went to the CIC website, and in the track application link I entered this number with the other requested information, and from there I checked my status, there is nothing much there except that they indicated the date they received my application, in the future when there is more progress on your file you can check the status from there.

You can not do the above untill you receive the AOR from SY in which you will find you file number generated by them.

As for the proof of funds, I guess a 3 months bank statement is a must, I support waiting till 3 months pass with the requested amount in my account, but still I will ask my consultant, as you know the phase in which you send your full documents is critical and you do not want to make any mistakes or miss anything as this will impact your processing time. I will keep you updated once I receive any reply from my consultant.

I did download the specific instructions for Damascus visa office where they list all the requested documents, and the below was written regarding the proof of funds:

(Refer to the "Proof of Funds" section of our Web site or the Guide for Federal Skilled Worker Applicants for exact figures and instructions.)
You must provide evidence of all unencumbered transferable funds you have available for settlement in Canada, including evidence of the accumulation of those funds. This must include a bank statement(s) showing all transactions for the last six months with a current balance at least equivalent to the minimum required funds. A letter of solvency providing the current balance of your accounts(s) or the
average credits and debits in your account(s) is not acceptable evidence.
If you have recently deposited a large amount of money into your bank account, you must clearly explain the provenance of these funds (ex. Sale of property, inheritance, etc.) and provide supporting evidence

Since this is a general point I guess it will be the same for all visa offices, so I hope you pay attention to it. And I will keep you posted.

[sosololo]

In Cairo guide (Appendix A Checklist) you will find item number 11
11.
SETTLEMENT FUNDS
Refer to the "Proof of Funds" section of our Web site for exact figures and instructions.
Provide proof of unencumbered and readily transferable funds in a convertible currency available for settlement in Canada (for you and your family members):
•current bank certification letter; or
•evidence of savings balance; or
•fixed or time deposit statements.

That is it.
Nothing about bank statement last six months or three months.
Also, in IMM EG7000 (01-2010)   and  OP 6 Federal Skilled Workers   
and these three Documents is the reference for all FSW.   may be in your country you have a specific requirements different from others.
