Yes you have to show statement of 6 months.
Although, not necessary that money should be in ur account for 6 months if you take a gift deed.
ok. Thank you so much. and last doubt- i have 3 saving accounts in 3 different banks with minimal balance- and if i show all 3 bank statements of last 6 months then do i need to get the bank letter stating of no loans which people are talking on forum?

Bank will give you a balance as of now letter that will show all kind of accounts you have with them. That letter itself states that you dont have a loan account with them.

Hello All,

I had a question on POF. I have started funding my bank account in this month itself ( MAY 2018) previously i was not using this account. Now i have my WES and IELTS ready. My score is 476 which means i would get an ITA in the next draw itself. But since i have started funding my account now should i wait for another 3-4 months to get into the EE pool or should i show the source of funds( gift deed etc.) and get into the pool right away?

Please help!
Ideally, always better to do it asap.

Hi All,

We need some advice please. We have received ITA and are busy getting our documents together. I am the Principle Applicant and my partner will be accompanying me. For POF - it is possible to only include accompanying spouses documents as he has sufficient POF for us and leave mine out even though I'm Principle Applicant? Thanks!

Hello All,

Please can I submit a proof of an expected gratuity as proof of funds for Canada immigration. If possible, pls give format I should use in explaining the gratuity.

Thank you
From what I read in this forum, gratuity is not accepted, though epf can be.

I don't think it should be a problem. But to be sure, you can always add your husband as a joint account holder.
Still, I'd suggest you research more on this :)

You need to show your account as well as his account. Although, you need to prove that you have access to that money. I am not entirely sure but you will need some kind of documentation from your spouse that states that you have access to that money. Following is all I found regarding this on CIC website.

If your spouse is coming with you, you can count money you have together in a joint account. You may be able to count money in an account under their name only, but you must prove you have access to the money.

If you are invited to apply, you must give written proof that you have this money.

Advice Required:

Scenario:
Country: INDIA
ITA Received in April 2018
Applicants: 2 (Primary + Secondary)
For POF:
Target: CAD 18000

I and my wife have a joint account: 9500 CAD
Balance my dad will gift through Gift Deed

Questions:
1. For POF, can we show money from the joint account? (This account is NOT Either or Survivor, it's a pure joint account, where to withdraw funds, a signature from both a/c holders are required).

2. If yes, since I am the primary applicant, and to show POF using our joint account, do I need some document from my wife declaring that I have full access to the funds in the account? If yes, what kind of document will be required?

3. If above two questions support joint account, Is it a good idea to transfer the gift deed money in the same joint account, as it holds the rest of the funds.

Hi,
My parents gifted me the funds for immigration and I had a question regarding the gift deed. I have the gift deed and affidavit signed and notarized already. Is that enough to include that with the Proof of funds letter? Do I need to attach the check or remittance form too?

The problem is that my parents have a joint account and the Gift Deed & Affidavit have my father's name on it, but the actual check has my mother's name on it. So, that might create some confusion for the immigration officer.

Thanks,

Hello,

I am Rajesh from India and I married to a foreign national. My wife is the Principal applicant in our case. The problem is, Indian banks don't open bank accounts for foreign nationals. As per IRCC spouse can be in joint account but the principal applicant should have full access to money in joint account. But Indian bank even don't allow to add foreign nationals in joint account. I have maintained Express Entry PoF in my Indian bank account, now we are confused how we should show funds on behalf of my wife as she is the principal applicant.

Please suggest or share if anyone is familiar with the similar case.

1 yes
2 a sworn affidavit that she gives you permission to use money from joint account. (not sure on this though.. you should research on that)
3 yes you can.

just the gift deed and affidavit is fine. you can attach the statement showing transfer from that account to urs.
