Am I not supposed to post in this group?? I am early April applicant, so I thought it would be good to have information for both March and April applicants.
Yes, it worked for me. We just prepared a letter, provided all details ( bank account information, transaction slip, cheque)
I got PPR within 2 months.
The letter was on plane paper, we both signed the letter, no affidavit was done,
maile ta stamp paper jasto kehi use garena. Just white paper ma print out nikale, ani gift liney ani diney ko name ani signature rakhera submit gareko thiya. Mathi content ma chahi sabai information thiyo. Bank cheque ani transaction slip pani submit gareko thiya.
I was working as a Research assistant (part time) while studying ( full time). I submitted experience letter from my professor, which was accepted by IRCC.
I didn't cross the border but I did my landing on Edmonton at IRCC office. I just took my CoPR, passport, PGWP. They didn't asked me about proof of funds. It was done within 3 minutes.
It is absolutely fine. Just ask your dad to write a letter stating that he is gifting that money. You don't need to notarize it. Just ask your dad to write letter in plain paper but make sure to include detail information. And explain it in letter of explanation and submit all proof you can.
