We don't like immigration agents - the ones' that aren't authorized by ICCRC and qualified to help you with your application in exchange for money - first of all, it's not legal to do that, and second of all, it's so easy that you don't really need paid help! We are a young couple who started their Canadian Immigration journey in 2018 and moved to Canada 3 days before the pandemic hit in March 2020. Over the course of our application, we have seen so many people getting screwed over by greedy / fraudulent and unauthorized immigration consultants who promise you the world in exchange for thousands of dollars and deliver a whole lot of NOTHING; to an extent that in many cases, the applications get rejected, due to their negligence.
Therefore, we are taking matters in our own hands. After months of research and our own experience of applying for a Canadian PR, we came up with an e-book series & this KZbin channel which would include - errors to avoid, perfect sample documents (my own) and alternate ways of immigrating to Canada - 100 pages of absolute goldmine between these 3 e-books - no filters, no premium versions to these ebooks... everything is out there FOR FREE, for you to read and execute the process yourself! All we are doing in these ebooks is sharing our experience of applying for PR ourselves / structuring and pointing you in the right direction via various different resources that are available on IRCC's official website. The KZbin channel will compliment the e-book and add some personality and entertainment to the entire process :-)
Volume 1: Step by step express entry process from know nothing about immigration all the way to getting an invitation to apply (ECA, IELTS etc). Download here - www.potatotalkies.com/
Volume 2: Post ITA express entry process - documentation, samples, POF, Proof of work, medical, biometrics all the way to getting a stamped passport ;-) Download here - www.potatotalkies.com/
Volume 3: Alternate ways of moving to canada | Provincial Nominee program - OINP, AINP, MPNP, NSNP, SINP, RNIP and more. Download here - www.potatotalkies.com/
Save your money, and if you find these e-books useful, do not forget to buy us a coffee when you reach Canada :-)

[@vijebhatia]

Your video is 4 years old and there have been a number of videos made in the meantime by various KZbinrs, BUT, this is, by far the best documentation and presentation on this topic. This is the difference between educated content creators like you and "just to make money" kind of KZbinrs. Good job @potatotalkies. God bless you.

I know it's 2 years since this video has been released and maybe a little outdated, but I'm wondering if anyone noticed that the wire transfer fees in INR is the exact amount in CAD that is required for Proof of funds 😁. Thank you Simran and Navjot for this insightful info, while the rate might be outdated, the idea/concept/way of thinking will remain the same. This has really given me insight on how I want to move my money to Canada. Cheers

[@lizapereira6800]

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, it helps. Because of your feedback on the Scotia Bank StartRight program, will be exploring this option. I wanted to ask how many days before your travelled to land in Canada did you initiate the international account opening, is there an Indian ph no or team to reach out to in case of queries as Scotia bank in India does not seem to have info or contact details about this particular program, are there additional processing charges by scotia bank or icici bank (local bank to transfer from)? Thank you for your inputs.

[@harshparekh5494]

Excellent information

[@poorvysharma6472]

Aapki saari videos mast hoti hai 😀🙏❤️

[@himanshugulia18]

Awesome videos guys. Small question, how does wire transfer help in credit rate boosting as it is not a credit product and a savings product.

[@Potatotalkies]

My bad. This is the rule in Hong Kong where I have lived before. Canada works much like the rest of the world and you won't get a push to your credit score if you dont use a credit card / or other form of credit line. The credit score is a flat 618 for new immigrants.

[@gopikarathi3830]

Thanks for the videos. I have few queries!! Kindly reply 1. How much fund can we take in the form of gift deed? Can we take a substantial amount like 60-70% of the complete requirement? Can the amount be gifted from two people? 2. Can we show our ELSS (Mutual Funds), which are still having lock in period going on? 3. Do we need the proof of funds at the time of making the profile or after we receive ITA?

[@prateeksaxena3697]

Hey, really useful video, thanks! just a doubt, do u advice taking only around the proof of funds required while moving, and move the rest of ur saved funds after actually landing in Canada?just seeking your views, thanks.

Which bank in India did you use for this wire transfer? I am a USA green card holder. Can I also transfer money from India to the USA, same as you did? As far as I remember, my bank in India asked me to fill up 15ca or 15cb form, which is a worse thing to get.. too much hassles to get 15CA form and 15 CB form. Any advice ??

[@DivineBansuri]

So I have a Indian Debit Card now with International Usage on ...my Bank Says you can take it to Canada and Use it there directly in 1.ATM to withdraw Canadian Cash 2.Swipe in any restaurant, shop, etc. 3.Purchase anything In Online there . Is it a Good Option as Bank says they will charge 3.5 % of the transaction conversation + GST 18% ... ... Is it a Good option to Use Money ...as this transaction charges will be always taken whenever there is a purchase or withdrawal ...is it good option ? Should I use Credit Card instead which has less transaction charges ....say 2% ....
