An applicant asked what can be shown as Proof of Funds for SINP — options like PF, PPF, mutual funds, or a savings account — and what documentation is needed for each.
What the group advised:- Check the SINP website directly — it describes in detail exactly which fund types and documents it accepts, and this is the authoritative source rather than general community knowledge.
- A common point of confusion: PPF (Public Provident Fund) vs. EPF (Employees' Provident Fund). One member specifically flagged that only PF (meaning EPF) was mentioned as accepted in official guidance, while multiple YouTube sources say PPF specifically is NOT accepted — don't assume these two similarly-named instruments are interchangeable.
- If in doubt, contact SINP directly by emailing immigration@gov.sk.ca for a definitive answer on your specific fund type.
Takeaway: don't assume all provident/investment fund types are treated the same for SINP — PPF and EPF are commonly confused but may not both be accepted; verify with SINP's official website or by emailing them directly.
