Hi,

Just a quick question. Is that okay if someone has a bank account which is in another city where you are not residing currently. So suppose if a person is living and working in Toronto and they have the account in Vancouver Now that the account is in Toronto but the person has nothing to do with this city. They have never lived there in life and neither worked there. They just have the account in Tornonto because their friend who was a manager in the bank in that city and he suggested to open the account for better interests rate etc. This friendship cannot be proven by written evidence. But the applicant has full access to that account in Toronto. They have ATM card and cheque book etc. Does cic ask that why you have an account in a strange city where you have neither lived or worked or studied in your whole life?

Regards

Your bank account can be in any part of the world as long as it belongs to you and has sufficient funds.

Nah, not an issue. I'm in Ohio and have an account in Vancouver, and an account in North Carolina (never lived or worked there). CIC doesn't bat an eye.
