How much money do you need to move to Canada?
Rounding it up
Single adults need a minimum of $12,960 (CDN) to secure a visa in Canada.
You’ll need an additional $3,492 (CDN) for every additional family member.
Couples and large families may need even more to remain financially afloat.
Don’t forget your settlement funds must be immediately accessible. For example, your funds can’t be tied to real estate.
