IRCC recently updated the amount of funds necessary for the Federal Skilled Worker and Federal Skilled Trades Programs. Number of Family Members Funds Required (in Canadian dollars) 1 $12,474 2 $15,530 3 $19,092 4 $23,181 5 $26,291 6 $29,652 7 $33,013 The applicant should include themselves, their spouse or partner, their dependent children and their spouse’s dependant children when calculating the size of their family. This calculation includes spouses and dependent children who are permanent residents or Canadian citizens. Funds need to be transferable and available and unencumbered. Settlement funds must solely be in the name of the principal applicant. They cannot be co-owned or held in partnership by anyone else. These funds must be available both at the time of application and when a permanent resident visa is issued. The applicant will need to prove to an immigration officer that they are able to legally access those funds to settle in Canada when they arrive. Please note that Canadian customs regulations require that all travelers to Canada must declare if they are bringing more than CAN $10,000 into Canada. Failure to do so could result in a fine and the funds being seized. Back to all posts Share this post:
Arjun Vegesna Absolutely delighted with John from this firm with the way he counselled with suitable options available for me on migration to Canada, documentation submissions, query resolutions, visa processing and continued personal support and follow up until the last step. Would recommend this firm for anybody blindly looking for immigration help. They would guide you with complete transparency and professionalism.
Teresa F. Borders Law Firm is my far the best experience I have had. After consulting and meeting with other immigration lawyers, I really felt confident with this firm. I have worked with Jenny Mao over the past year and I am happy to say that she has helped me out immensely and I am extreme grateful for not only her professionalism, but for her hard work and determination. I highly reccomend Borders Law Firm. From my experience, they are the best in the GTA.
Amulya Excellent Firm..! Always helpful, friendly and honest with their work. My personal thanks to Devika and Yana for providing excellent service. I highly recommend them for any kind of Visa application.
Satish Maduri I had a very good experience with Borders Law Firm. Though my PR file was a bit complicated, Brendan, Andres and Devika worked extremely well in a thorough and perfect manner. I was so happy when my PR application was processed in a record-breaking 45 days, thanks to the meticulous handling of my case by the lawyers.
