1. Its not necessary to have money in hand. It can be either in form of travellers cheque or even a bank statement in personal account (from where applicant is coming) will do, as far as it shows the minimum amount required.

2. No, you do not have to show the amount again.

* Leon/PMM or other seniors members can comment on this, if anything to amend.

I will add these lines, as mentioned by PMM in one ofthe otehr post for same question:


2. Either, traveller's cheques, cash, bank statement, cashiers cheque. Don't forget if you are carrying more than 10K you must declare it on leaving the US and entering Canada.

I THINK, If all travelling togather and you are Principal applicant, you can hold all required funds.

Another thing you can do is you can Send a bank statement to CIC for the required amount of funs and when you get to Canada You show the immigration officer your bankstatement and when you open a canadia bank account you have your money transfered.
