Hello greetings. My father just sold one of his lands and he will deposit the money in my newly created bank account. I will create this account in the first week of June.

When the funds are in can i use that account to apply for a student visa in that same month of June?

You must show bank statements over 4 months. So you cannot use a newly created account until you can show 4 months of statements.

Okay thank you for your response. I applied for a vocational training program in Canada for September, it means i won't be able to apply for the visa then.

You can try and apply. If refused due to funds, it is because your funds were not at least 4 months old. What program and school?

No chance. It is a private school, not a DLI, program is less than a year and you cannot work after completion. You cannot even work while studying.
