I can confirm that this is the best method so far.

Thank you for answering again. Do we have numbers at all?

Thanks!! Do we have any idea how much slower it will be?

Thank youu. It's the FSW stream.

I received my AOR on April 3rd, 2020.

I have a joint account with my parents which used to be a Savings account and its due time came in February when it became a current account. In my bank, both accounts have the same ID which is xxxxxxx, BUT they have different IBAN's which is xxxxxxyyyyy or xxxxxzzzzzz (ID number in the...

Thank you for confirming. This is what I will do.

Another notary just told me to get the Arabic document myself. They won't even prepare one.

I'm from Lebanon. The notary said that he isn't authorized to notarize a document in a foreign language. Do you have any idea who else can be witness? A lawyer maybe?

I agree with you about doing it to be on the safe side. I still have to get it done then translated which I was trying not to do. But if it's safer I'll do it.

I have a joint account with my parents from which we transferred money to an account which is only in my name. I will declare statements for both accounts. While the transfer is less than a week old, and the account that gifted me the sum is in the name of me and both my parents, do I still...

Most banks have implemented a "new system" which they call "fresh funds". By this system, any USD cash that gets deposited can be wired. I still don't trust them by one bit, which is why I won't deposit my USD and will be using the LBP account instead. Thank you so much for your replies, you...

I can't begin to thank you enough. Finally, you're someone who understands what's going on. I'll be providing proof with 25million LBP. I was smart enough to save 10k USD at home, so I can use those in case I got my PR. Again thank you greatly. One last question, do you think a gift deed is...

Good to hear that you got your PR. One thing that's bugging me is that whatever LBP I have in my Lebanese account, I won't be able to convert it to CAD. You see, it's true that the bank rate is 1515LBP per 1 USD, but the banks don't let you convert any LBP to USD, AT ALL. Do you think CIC...

Yess I am Lebanese. Thank you so much for replying. May I ask if you applied before or after October 17?

I can explain that the 10k is from my salary that has been deposited in one of my accounts for around 21 months. As for the LBP amount, I can get a gift declaration from my parents (I can get it notarized if that's what you're asking). 1. Would LBP be okay? 2. I don't trust Lebanese banks...

I'm going to have my parents transfer me 25 million LBP from our joint account that has 1 year prior history into a new account of mine and sign a self-declaration. Imo, this feels better than just depositing 10k USD that don't have prior history. What's your opinion?

Luckily I already have 10k USD at home. I'm planning to deposit those and get an international banker's cheque with them. I can wire them too when I land in Canada. Is this okay?

thank you greatly!

This worries me a bit because no matter how much LBP you have within a bank, you still can't use it to settle in Canada. Them using this logic doesn't make very much sense. Unless, of course, they don't know what's going on in the country. Should I rest my mind and just show enough LBP to...
