A member received an Additional Document Request (ADR) after AOR asking for updated proof of funds, a detailed explanation of the source of funds, and 6 months of bank statement history — their funds had come from multiple sources (mutual fund redemptions, transfers between accounts, and family contributions).
What the thread recommended (confirmed independently by more than one member):- Submit a straightforward 6-month bank statement together with a balance certificate shown in CAD. Both members who responded converged on this same, specific combination as sufficient to satisfy this type of ADR — you don't necessarily need to reconstruct every individual historical transaction from over a year prior if your recent 6-month statement and current balance certificate are clean and consistent.
Takeaway: when IRCC requests updated proof of funds with a source explanation, a clean 6-month bank statement plus a CAD-denominated balance certificate is the response multiple members reported as sufficient — focus on the recent, current picture rather than trying to explain every older transaction in detail.
