Non-citizens:

Common documents that may be accepted as proof of identity and residency for non-citizens include:

  1. Passport from the individual's home country.
  2. Work permit or study permit issued by the Canadian government.
  3. Temporary resident visa (visitor visa) issued by the Canadian government.
  4. Proof of address in Canada, such as a rental agreement, utility bill, or letter from a Canadian employer or educational institution.

It's important to note that the specific requirements and procedures for opening a bank account can vary between different banks and branches. Some banks may have more lenient policies for non-citizens, while others may have stricter requirements.

      • Yes, non-residents can open a bank account at Canadian CIBC bank. However, Canadian banks typically require that you be a resident of the country before considering opening an account for you. +1
