How much money do I need to immigrate to Canada?

The amount depends on your immigration pathway and family size. For Express Entry, single applicants generally need proof of funds of around CAD 14,000, while couples require around CAD 17,000 or more. This is to show you can support yourself after arriving in Canada. The amount increases with each dependent. If you already have a valid Canadian job offer or are applying from within Canada, you may be exempt from showing proof of funds. It's advisable to maintain a higher balance to avoid rejection due to fluctuating exchange rates.
