❓ FAQ
INR to CAD FAQ.
INR to CAD for Canada PR settlement funds — what's the requirement?
Canadian PR applicants under Express Entry must show settlement funds based on family size: single applicant CAD 14,690 (2026), 2 persons CAD 18,288, family of 4 CAD 27,297, etc. Funds must be held for 6+ months before landing and demonstrably accessible (not locked in property/PPF). For Indian applicants, this typically means converting ₹8-25 lakh from INR to CAD via Wise, ICICI Money2World, or HDFC Forex 6-12 months before landing. Bank statements demonstrating the 6-month holding period are mandatory at the port of entry.
Why has INR weakened against CAD over 5 years?
Both INR and CAD have weakened against USD over 5 years, but INR has weakened more (~18%) than CAD (~14%). The combined effect: INR has lost ~4-5% against CAD over 5 years. This is small compared to most INR cross-rates, reflecting Canada's commodity-linked economy that shares some structural depreciation with INR. For Indian migrants planning to Canada, the INR-CAD rate has been more stable than INR-USD or INR-GBP.
Canadian university fees from India — what's the budget?
Canadian university tuition for international students: CAD 25,000-45,000/year (undergrad), CAD 18,000-45,000/year (master's, varies widely by program). Plus living: CAD 15,000-22,000/year. Total CAD 40,000-67,000/year, equivalent to ₹25-42 lakh annually. For 2-year Master's program: ₹50-85 lakh total. Most Indian families use bank education loans (HDFC Credila, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank) plus family savings split. TCS-exempt up to ₹7 lakh for education remittance per FY.
