Hey everyone. Need some urgent help.

I am receiving my POF from my sister (approx 24k CAD) as a gift. I want to ask what documents must be submitted upfront in the case of a gift deed. I was told :
My bank statements 6 months
My sister's 1 month bank statment
Gift deed
Transfer from sister to me record.

Is this enough or do i also have to show my sister's money source upfront. Also if she is selling her gold to procure the money is this acceptable and what documents do i need to submit to provide a valid trail. Given in mind that jewellers in Pakistan operate in cash and do not transfer directly through banks (its to escape taxes and quite common here). Her gold is declared in income rax returns so does that help. And do we need to show this upfront or only if demanded. Please help..i will be so grateful.
 

You need a bank letter​

For proof, you must get official letters from any banks or financial institutions where you have an account.

These letters must be printed on the financial institution’s letterhead and include:

  • the bank or institution’s contact information (address, telephone number and email address)
  • your name
  • your outstanding debts (such as credit card debts and loans)
  • these details for each current banking and investment account you have with them:
    • account numbers
    • date each account was opened
    • current account balances
    • average balance for the past 6 months
