Hi everyone !! i sent a mail to CPC-Ottawa to know my Visa Office on 12 July. I got a reply just now that my file is in Ottawa. it also says "
Please note that we cannot confirm when your file will be ready for finalization.
We do not require any information from you at the present time. An officer will contact you if further information is required. Please ensure when submitting documents that they are still valid and will not expire within six (6) months as this could delay your application."
i am not sure what is the mail trying to imply ? though, am happy that file in in Ottawa. Expecting some positive movement soon. Experts, your thoughts ??

Hi Everyone,

I had a message in my account which has made me panic quite considerably when i saw the email come through,

its a request for more information on my funds,

"- Client Information: For a family of 2 you must have in the form of transferable and available funds, unencumbered by debts or other obligations, an amount equal to $15,312 (in Canadian dollars) to settle in Canada. Please provide documentary evidence of this"

Now i struggled getting the necessary letters in the right format from my banks, but i thought i clearly documented that i had the necessary funds in another account, and the amounts spread across my other accounts covered the debts on credit cards etc which i was quite candid about.

Can i call them and request to get clarification, or just through CSE's at them until they accept it as the right amount, i'll admit we are quite close to the edge, but still have enough.

the current balance on my joint account is 700 dollars equivalent more than the amount stated

Oh I see. So like was it necessary for you to submit the PCCs for the travels or where they less than 6 months?
No, they weren't.

True. Still can't justify the panicking and being overly impatient when it only has been 90 days for most people here. I totally understand how nerve wrecking the experience is (I'm in the same boat myself), but calling CIC when they specifically ask you not to is not a good idea imo.
Nothing wrong in calling CIC, the operators are there for a reason. This is just a human tendency, from both sides.

If the amount is already in excess and cannot be affected by dollar fluctuations. I think you should check all documents to be in order, maybe there was some mistake or confusion for them from your side, hence they are asking again. Try to be as clear and precise you can be. Upload the POF, also attach send a LOE to them explaining that how you think you have met with the conditions and requirements and have sent them an updated POF again and to let you know if there is any further documentation to be provided. Send the business card of the person signing your balance certificate, make sure the certificate has all the contact information of bank, your account number, date f opening account, average balance of last 6 months and opening/closing balance of that day etc etc.
They must have been confused about something and hence be very clear in documentation.
This is my opinion in this regard, others can further help and advise.

Hey @Prats6, just wanted to know that when was the application status updated after PPR for you and what it states now?
was it when you received CoPR or in between the time period you had sent PP via VFS.

I'm kind of worried by the statement that all documents should not expire within six months because my IELTS score expires in August. Can CIC reject an application based on the fact that IELTS expire before the 6 month period?
