Updated Proof of Funds for Canada Express Entry [Effective 5th July 2021]

Canada has made the most recent update to its Express Entry programme. To qualify for Express Entry, an immigrant must meet the new Proof of Funds. Both the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) and the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) have been updated to reflect these changes (FSTP). This new adjustment does not apply to you if you have a genuine employment offer from one of these programmes. The new update will begin on July 15, 2021, at the latest.

Note that you must include your spouse or dependent children in your calculations, even if they are:

  • permanent residents or Canadian citizens
  • not coming to Canada with you
