Convert a CIBC bank statement to Excel
Convert a CIBC statement PDF to Excel or CSV in your browser. StatementSift detects date, description, amount and balance columns, then checks row-by-row balance continuity before export. CIBC statements use this layout: CIBC statements follow the debit/credit ledger format: Date, Description, Withdrawals ($), Deposits ($), and Balance ($), opening with the Opening balance and ending with the Closing balance plus total deposits and withdrawals for the period.

Watch-outs for CIBC statements
CIBC separates money out and money in into debit and credit columns. If a row is flagged, first check whether the sign was assigned correctly.
Wrapped merchant descriptions can push the next line out of alignment; check long descriptions when the balance proof fails.
Opening balance, closing balance and page-break continuation rows are not ordinary transactions, so review the first and last rows on multi-page statements.
