GIC serves as a symbol of assurance/guarantee to the government of Canada that you have sufficient funds to meet your living expenses for one year in Canada. It ensures the fast processing of the Canadian visa or application for a study permit. Candidates need to submit proof of the bank statements. A GIC of $10,000 CAD (approximately INR 5.95 lacs) acts as evidence of funds from the approved Canadian-based bank.
