A member asked which asset types (Provident Fund, Public Provident Fund, mutual funds, savings account) could be used as proof of funds for SINP, and what documentation each would require.
What the thread clarified:- Check SINP's own official website for the detailed, authoritative list of accepted proof-of-funds types — this is the primary recommended source, since informal community answers can be incomplete or outdated.
- SINP's own materials mention EPF (Employee Provident Fund) specifically, but do not clearly address PPF (Public Provident Fund). Multiple YouTube sources cited in the thread claimed PPF specifically is NOT accepted, only EPF — this distinction matters since the two are often confused but are different fund types.
- If the website and informal sources leave you uncertain, email SINP's immigration office directly (immigration@gov.sk.ca) for a definitive answer on whether your specific fund type qualifies.
The practical takeaway: check SINP's official website first, but be aware that EPF and PPF are commonly confused — several sources indicate only EPF (not PPF) is accepted — and if you're still unsure about your specific asset type, email SINP's immigration office directly for confirmation.
