i'm from the philippines and i am applying for SINP through the family stream.

my brother will be sending the affidavit of support and all other required docs from him (as the permanent resident)

my question on the proof of "transferable" settlement funds, what is the requirement?

the reason why i'm quoting the "transferable" is that i believe the funds are not needed to be already in a bank in canada or canadian bank. please correct me if i'm wrong.

this means i just need to show i have >$10,000 that is in my bank account (which of course is in my country the philippines) which is readily transferable to a bank in canada in case i am nominated and my application to be an immigrant is granted by the federal government (CIC).

what do i need to show as proof? would a bank statement issued by our bank here in the philippines suffice?

filipinos who applied through SINP, please help... i'd appreciate your feedback! thanks! merci beaucoup!
