If I were you, ofcourse if they insist on not providing the letter, I would just tell them that they(CIC) will check in any case with the employer, and it will make things easier if they just provide the letter ... ;D a little white lie will never hurt ....
Good idea, thanks :)

I ll give them few more days then I ll give them a call ;)

Hello everyone,

I'm in the process of applying for Ontario PNP and have a question about the proof of funds. Was your bank able to give you a six month statement in English?
I have an acc in Garanti bank and they only do it in Turkish. I wonder if I should have it translated (even though it's mostly numbers and clear to understand). They only gave me a letter in English which says how much funds I have available at the moment in the account. I also wanted to ask if I should have Tescil Talepnamesi (with the signatures of the persons signing my final statement) translated into English and submitted?
I am not Turkish (married to one) and this is all very confusing to me.

I dont think you are required to get the tescil talepnamesi... a signature circular maybe (this is something that banks provide easily but I dont think its required either) but I have not heard of tescil talepnamesi ... I mean not for the POF.... sorry that wasnt much help I guess :(

Ok so one question;

It says ın IRCC that for any supporting document other than English or French one should provide the following;


the English or French translation; and
an affidavit from the person who completed the translations; and
a certified photocopy of the original document."

What I understand is the regular notary right? Like we will go to a sworn translator (they are usually located next to the notary anyway) and translate it and get the notary to notarize right?

There has been a lot of confusion regarding this on the other threads so I would like to know if smo from Turkey actually submitted it like this and got PPR...

I mean I dont see any other way but I just wanted to double check..... how did you do it? step by step please :)

Thankss

Dear Ezgi, you should go to translation office who is recognized by the notary. like you say mostly they cooperate. the office usually complete all for you.

down side is a set docs translated for 400tl is expected to have in excess of 1000 tl notary cost

So, it worked :) I have the reference letter in the exact format after 3 weeks..One magical phone call :))


As for the notary, I ll get my documents tranlated at a sworn translator and they will get all the documents notarized (probably at a cost of over 1000TL :( ). I don't think they can provide an affidavit but sworn translator+notary should be enough (hopefully)

I have a question about translator and notary. The other day I had my bank statements for the past six months translated and got them approved by notary.
When it is being translated the seals on the translated documents are all in Turkish. Do you think that it would create a problem? How do they understand that the document is legible?

I had the same problem while I was getting my fingerprint card notarized (to get PCC from RCMP)..I asked the notary to seal it with a "true copy" stamp but they only have in Turkish (aslı gibidir)..They advised me to get the "aslı gibidir" stamp translated again (!?!). I sent the documents with the "aslı gibidir" stamp on them (along with a bunch of other notary stamps) and it worked for the RCMP..I think they can figure it out but you could also ask your translator to stamp it with the "True Copy" (they mostly have it)

Ok one question; do we really have to translate the bank documents (I am talking about the 6 month statement where there are only transactions listed)? I am not talking about the bank letter though....

And is there anyone who works with Is bankasi, do they easily provide the documents (bank letter etc)the way CIC wants or do we have to insist on it :) ?

You don't have to "insist" anything. It is your financial records, you can ask for a record whenever you want. There is nothing special here, ask for account transaction history (hesap dökümü). Pretty straight forward.

And yes, you definitely need translation.
