If you have submitted bank account statement of over 5-6 months duration along with your main application than the chances are very low to be asked again for POF(Proof of Funds). However, if you submitted only a bank balance certificate, than there is every possibility of you being asked for an updated POF (Last Six Months account statements). This will be asked either before medical request or along with MR. They might just cross check the presence of your bank and account but will not investigate any details of your balance. Morever banks dont provide any account balance details to anyone without your consent. Many cases are seen where applicants are being asked for an updated POF along with medical request.
Thank you so very much.
I have submitted a statement for last 6 months. But in my statement my closing balance was around 13500 CAD. but during 6 months it was below the required amount. the last 1.5 ~ 2 months had the required amount. Is it ok?

As per my understanding, there are 2 different financial requirements:

1. For the immigration application: you need to submit 3-6 months bank activity statement.
2. At the time of landing, you must accompany POF (in terms of cash/Demand Draft/Canadian bank balance/etc) that you have the required funds to land.

Seniors my correct me.

Seems this is the best option for Medical. But a question here. Does the third line gets updated on ECAS, even if you haven't yet sent the PCC and Paid the RPRF. Or is it that 3rd line only gets updated when you finish all requested tasks (Medical, PCC and RPRF)
The 3rd line mentioning "Medical results have been received" appears after your medicals and you have passed them. It has no relation to PCC or RPRF.

Guys. I'm facing an issue. When getting the PCC from saudi the police officer insisted on writing my profession exactly as in the Iqama, which is Translator. I am actually applying under NOC 1123. That will show a discrepancy in my file. In fact, I have never worked as a translator before. So my file has not got any mention of translator at all

Did any one pass through such situation before. How did it go. Did it cause any problems

Please advise as I am really worried
No worries.. the iqama profession does not affect your application...

Tax return for the year 2014 is in process now.

Some of us did a short landing, we landed and returned back to basis.... what is our fate? Do we file? how do we go about it?

Is there anyone that has done this from outside?

please what is the process.
I am in the same boat. One magical aspect about the Canadian tax system for the newcomers is that the more you read and the more you inquire the more you get confused!! You get as many answers as you many times you ask

I am currently working in KSA but in order to change the job I have to go on Final Exit and come back to KSA on a new visa. This will take around 2 months.

I will have to close my Bank accounts and withdraw the funds. Then redeposit in new account when I come back.
My questions are:

- What should I do if they asked for a six month bank statement afterwards?
- What will happen if they call the bank to verify and my bank account is closed?
- I have already submitted PCC with the application. Will they ask for a new one? since its more than 6 months old now.

Seniors please answer.
