StudentsNG: This is a definition of problem I must say. And it goes to show that CIC has a way of monitoring what goes on in some account statements people submit. A lesson for us all, don't be in a hurry to empty the accounts!
It is difficult to advise this person, 300k is quiet on the low side. However here's my thought.
Write CIC with a strong wordings explaining why the account was emptied, it could be due to unforeseen circumstance that befell your family or a member of such. Tell them that you have used up the money to solve that problem and that you may need some more time to beef up.
Suggest to them of suspending the visa process and reapplying when ready, or that if the visa is granted that you will stay back and save a little more before coming. Promise them that you will provide the account at POE. Then attach the statement as is.
Or better still, source an alternative account from another sponsor or family member who would vow to take care of the finances due to the emergency that befell your family.
I don't know how reasonable this is, but that's what I could think of.
Once again, the rest of us should learn! I would rather suggest he or she finds a way to fund the account back to the said balance. You can then explain that u had to invest it in a project rather than leave it in the account considering it wasn't yielding any reasonable interest having it in the account. |
