-
Notification of Interest from Ontario

Applicant consent form
The checklist says to complete, sign, and upload the Applicant Consent Form after the invitation, once the application in the e-filing portal has been reviewed. A representative may not sign it.
-
Photograph

Passport personal details page and Canadian visa or stamp pages

Education documents

Settlement funds documents
The checklist says you must upload the documents for the settlement-funds option you use, or a combination of them. Available funds use recent bank statements for the last three months, and a spouse or common-law partner statement only with a letter confirming access.

A job offer uses the signed job-offer letter. The minimum amount stays on the checklist. Black out credit card numbers.
