Roy ? What exactly are "unecumbered " funds ?

Subject: Roy ? What exactly are "unecumbered " funds ?
  On my PR application it mentions that funds taken to Canada should be "unencumbered". What does that mean exactly ?

Let me give you guys some examples :

1)Suppose I owned investment properties. Would I have to sell them before moving to Canada ? The condos are not "free and clear" but they are income generating nonetheless.

2)What if I took a $500 000 bank loan once my PR visa was approved and had this money wired to me in Canada from abroad ?

Would this be OK ? What would be the CICs take on this ? Revenue Canada ?

Thanks guys,

CastAway

Hi Roy. I?m doin OK, decided to apply for my PR visa. I?m currently scraping together my $12 000 worth of settlement money and probably will be sending my application in next month.

Hi there Roy !

I want to thank you for your great advice man! I also want to tell you that I recieved my Canadian PR visa last month :) It was a long wait(started application process in 2007). I want to thank Sharon for her advice as well (can you pass it on to her?).

God bless and thank you so much Roy.
