Immigration AttorneyIf the ''lawful source of funds'' is a gift, the investor has to document the receipt of the gifted funds, that the funds were provided as a gift (may be in the form of an affidavit or declaration of gift by the donor, which should identify the date of the gift, amount of the gift, relationship, any special conditions, and the contact details for the donor), PLUS documents proving the donor''s legal source of those funds gifted to the investor. If there are no gift taxes in your country, it is not necessary to provide any sort of tax documentation related to your receipt of the gift. However, again, it will be critical to document the donor?s legal source of the funds that were gifted to the investor.
